QLDY is an actively managed ETF that seeks frequent income while maintaining the opportunity for indirect exposure to the performance of the Nasdaq-100 Index, subject to a limit on potential investment gains. QLDY is the first ETF designed to make distributions twice weekly, aiming to deliver more frequent income than traditional income-focused funds. QLDY seeks to provide investors with consistent income opportunities along with measured equity participation. The strategy is designed to balance potential growth and premium income while recognizing the risks of options trading and market volatility.
