The Cboe S&P 500 2% OTM BuyWrite Index tracks the performance of a hypothetical 2% out-of-the-money buy-write strategy on the S&P 500 Index. The buy-write strategy is based on buying positions indexed to the S&P 500 Index and writing near-term S&P 500 Index call options.
Fidelity Equity Premium Yield ETF aims to provide income and long-term capital growth. Fidelity Equity Premium Yield ETF Fund invests in Fidelity Equity Premium Yield ETF. In implementing an options-based strategy that aims to enhance cash flow and mitigate overall portfolio volatility, the ETF sells (writes) call options on an index representing the performance of companies with large market capitalizations, such as the S&P 500 Index. These funds’ ability to provide distributions to unitholders will depend on the yield available on the equity securities held by the ETF and the premiums received with respect to its written call options. There is no guarantee that the funds will make regular distributions to unitholders or that distributions to unitholders will remain consistent, and the amounts distributed to unitholders could vary based on the market or economic environment and other factors. Distributions in excess of a fund’s current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated as a return of capital, which is a distribution from the unitholder’s investment principal rather than net profits from a fund’s returns. Therefore, any portion of a distribution that is characterized as a return of capital should not be confused with a fund’s “yield” or “income.” Writing call options also involves risks, including that the ETF may be required to sell the underlying asset or settle in cash an amount of equal value at a price below the market price at the time of exercise of an option. The premiums associated with writing covered call options may not exceed the returns that would have resulted if the ETF had remained directly invested in the securities subject to call options. Please read the fund’s prospectus for more details of these and other risks.
The ETF uses a quantitative model or techniques, which may not produce the intended results for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to: errors or omissions in the data used by the model, the factors and/or assumptions used in the model, the weight placed on each factor and/or assumption in the model, changing sources of market return or market risk, market disruption, and technical issues in the design, development, implementation, and maintenance of the model. Please read the fund's prospectus for more details of these and other risks.
Commissions, trailing commissions, management fees, brokerage fees and expenses may be associated with investments in mutual funds and ETFs. Please read the mutual fund or ETF's prospectus, which contains detailed investment information, before investing. The indicated rates of return are historical annual compounded total returns for the period indicated, including changes in unit value and reinvestment distributions, and do not take into account any charges or income taxes payable by any security holder that would have reduced returns. Mutual funds and ETFs are not guaranteed. Their values change frequently. Past performance may not be repeated.
A return of capital reduces an investor’s adjusted cost base. Capital gains taxes are deferred until units are sold or until the ACB goes below zero. Investors should not confuse this cash flow distribution with a fund’s rate of return or yield. While investors in Fidelity’s tax-efficient series (Tax-Smart CashFlow) will be able to defer some personal capital gains, they must still pay tax on capital gains distributions that arise from the sale of individual holdings by fund managers, and on interest and dividend distributions. Tax-Smart CashFlow will also pay a year-end distribution that must be reinvested in additional securities of the applicable fund. The monthly cash-flow distributions on Tax-Smart CashFlow are not guaranteed, will be adjusted from time to time and may include income.
