📊WeeklyPay Strategy Overview

Roundhill MicroStrategy WeeklyPay ETF employs Roundhill's innovative strategy focused on MicroStrategy Inc. (MSTR). The fund uses a single stock covered call approach to generate weekly income distributions while maintaining exposure to the underlying MicroStrategy Inc. stock.

Strategy Highlights:

  • Weekly Distributions: Consistent weekly income payments
  • MSTR Focus: Direct exposure to MicroStrategy Inc. stock
  • Single Stock Strategy: Concentrated position in MSTR with enhanced income
  • Covered Call Premium: Additional income from options strategies

Risk Considerations:

  • Single Stock Risk: Concentrated exposure to MSTR stock only
  • High Volatility: MSTR can experience significant price swings
  • Distribution Variability: Payments may fluctuate with MSTR performance
  • NAV Erosion: Potential for principal decline over time

Note: High yields come with increased volatility and potential NAV erosion. This strategy is designed for income-focused investors who understand the risks of leveraged ETF strategies.
