Global X Nasdaq 100 Covered Call ETF (QYLD)
The Global X Nasdaq 100 Covered Call ETF (NASDAQ:QYLD) is an income-based spin on the Nasdaq-100 Index, a benchmark in which Apple is the largest component.
Big numbers in QYLD include a 12.25% weight to Apple and a trailing 12-month dividend yield of 10.20%, which is attained by the fund selling covered call options on the members of the Nasdaq-100 Index.
QYLD may be lost in the Apple shuffle, but it has over $980 million in assets under management.
Pacer Trendpilot 100 ETF (PTNQ)
The Pacer Trendpilot 100 ETF (CBOE: PTNQ) allocates almost 12% of its weight to Apple and is another spin on the Nasdaq-100.
At its core, PTNQ is a trend-following strategy that's fully invested when the Nasdaq-100 meets certain technical conditions, but if market conditions deteriorate, the fund reduces equity exposure and can become fully allocated to cash.
Apple is likely to ensure PTNQ's cash exposure remains low over the near-term.
