SMCY aims to generate monthly income while providing exposure to the price returns of Super Micro Computer Inc. (SMCI), subject to a cap on potential gains. It utilizes a synthetic covered call strategy via standardized exchange-traded and FLEX options, consisting of i) synthetic long exposure, ii) covered call writing, and iii) US Treasurys. The synthetic long exposure seeks to replicate the price movements of SMCI by buying and selling one- to six-month at-the-money calls and puts. The short put positions fully expose investors to the downside of the stock. The fund writes call options expiring in one month or less, with a strike price of 0%-15% above SMCIs share price. This generates income but limits participation in potential gains. To seek greater participation in SMCIs potential appreciation in the short term, the fund may opportunistically write credit call spreads. Note: the fund does not invest directly in SMCI stocks and thus, is not entitled to dividends.
