IWMY is actively managed to seek potential daily income on the price, and monthly distributions by utilizing options strategies. The fund implements two strategies: The first seeks to provide daily income by selling put options either at-the-money or up to 5% in-the-money, expiring the next trading day. The option positions become profitable if the Russell 2000 Index increases in value. The second strategy involves selling in-the-money put options to attempt a minimum daily income of 0.25% to seek monthly distributions. If this is determined to not be achievable, the fund will sell options that are priced at the current market value to maximize income.

Even during periods of adverse market conditions, the fund will not seek defensive positions and it will not directly or fully participate in the gains of the index. The funds risk and return potential will fluctuate daily. A significant portion of the portfolio will be held in short-term US Treasury securities, which will serve as collateral for the short put option positions.
