Q: Hello 5i,
Is there an exceptional amount of ROC for NXF.B and if so is it meaningfully detrimental to an investment in this. I enjoy the distribution but I do not want it to bite me in the butt when I finally sell. I have nine such cover call ETF's ( HDIV, HHLE, HMAX, HYLD, NXF.B, QMAX, SMAX, UMAX, ZWH.U) out of 48 positions making up 11% of the portfolio of mostly blue chip solid dividend payers. Am I heading for a disaster when I sell in a 5 to 8 year time frame? 79 year old value investor enjoying dividends.

5i Research Answer:
There has been minimal ROC in the past four years, and 0% in 2021, 2022 and 2024. There has been a higher proportion in earlier years, however. The funds noted have varying degrees of ROC but we would be comfortable at 11%. Keep in mind ROC is somewhat tax-advantageous and the income of these funds is as well, in most cases.
