The Fund’s investment objective and investment strategies changed effective December 15, 2017 and again on August 21, 2020. Index performance reflects the performance of the S&P 500 Stock Covered Call Index through December 14, 2017, the Cboe S&P 500 2% OTM BuyWrite Index through August 20, 2020, and the Cboe S&P 500 BuyWrite Index thereafter. The Fund was also re-organized effective December 24, 2018. Fund returns (NAV & Closing Price) presented above reflect the performance of the predecessor Fund through December 21, 2018.
Performance is shown on a total return basis (i.e., with gross income reinvested, where applicable). Cumulative return is the aggregate amount that an investment has gained or lost over time. Annualized return is the average return gained or lost by an investment each year over a given time period.
The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. High short-term performance, when observed, is unusual and investors should not expect such performance to be repeated.
