The State Street Technology Select Sector SPDR Premium Income ETF seeks to provide current income while maintaining prospects for long term growth of capital..

The Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in a combination of Technology company securities (via the State Street Technology Select Sector SPDR ETF, the Underlying Select Sector Fund) and investments that produce premium income. It generates additional income by systematically selling (writing) call options on the Underlying Select Sector Fund with expirations of less than one year (typically one to two months). The Underlying Select Sector Fund tracks the Technology Select Sector Index, which includes S&P 500 Information Technology companies. The Adviser sets strike prices based on option delta to balance income generation with potential for price appreciation.

The Fund systematically sells (writes) call option contracts on the Underlying Select Sector Fund with expirations of less than one year, typically one to two months, to generate incremental premium income. Listed Options or FLEX Options may be used. The Adviser rolls short options positions before expiration based on market and liquidity conditions, monitoring each option's delta to determine when to roll.

ROC is not free money — it lowers your cost basis. When shares are sold, capital gains are computed against the lower basis.

Composition · Narrative

The Fund intends to make distributions that may be taxed as ordinary income, qualified dividend income, and/or capital gains. Some distributions may be treated as a return of capital for tax purposes. Frequent selling of call options may result in increased distributions that are taxable as ordinary income.
