Roundhill Investments has launched the Magnificent Seven Covered Call ETF (MAGY) on Cboe BZX, expanding their Magnificent Seven ETF lineup which currently manages over $1.7 billion in AUM. The new ETF implements a covered call strategy by purchasing shares of the Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF (MAGS) and writing calls against its holdings.
MAGY aims to provide weekly income while offering exposure to the Magnificent Seven stocks, which represent approximately 29% of the S&P 500. The launch complements Roundhill's existing products:
- MAGS: Equal-weight exposure for growth-focused investors
- MAGX: 2x daily leveraged exposure for traders
- MAGY: Weekly distributions for income-oriented investors
CEO Dave Mazza noted that while the Magnificent Seven stocks represent global tech leadership, they have recently faced market headwinds. MAGY is designed to offer participation in these companies while reducing volatility and generating weekly option premium income.
