This Options Strategy Is Changing Income Investing (OVL, OVS, OVF)
In this episode of Dividend Stockpile, I sit down with Eric McArdle, Head of Advisor Solutions at Liquid Strategies, to break down their high-income “Overlay Shares” ETF lineup: OVL, OVS, and OVF. These ETFs take a different approach to income investing—using a put spread options strategy instead of traditional covered calls to generate consistent income across large cap, small cap, and international equities. We dive deep into how this strategy works, why these ETFs have outperformed their benchmarks since inception, and how they may fit into an income-focused portfolio. What We Cover: • Overview of Liquid Strategies and the Overlay Shares philosophy • What “overlay” actually means in OVL, OVS, and OVF • How the put spread strategy works (in simple terms) • Why these ETFs have outperformed their reference indexes • Key differences vs covered call ETFs • Deep dive into each ETF: • OVL – Large Cap Equity • OVS – Small Cap Equity • OVF – International Equity • Yield, income frequency, and fees • Tax considerations for income investors • Where these ETFs may fit in your portfolio • What makes this strategy stand out in a crowded income ETF market If you’re looking for high income ETFs, monthly income strategies, or alternatives to covered call funds, this is a must-watch.
