FEPI: Gigantic Tech Yield, But Don't Ignore The Downside Risk

  • FEPI's 28% yield is eye-catching, but its aggressive covered call strategy leads to significant price erosion and downside risk over time. The ETF's heavy exposure to slow-growing, overvalued tech giants like Tesla and Apple increases vulnerability to market corrections and valuation resets. April's market sell-off highlighted FEPI's limited upside and pronounced downside, as it failed to recover like broader tech indices or peer ETFs.
