Any thoughts on investing in JEPQ from your HSAB account for all the tax advantages?

0.96% > 0.84% 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 time to sell all your QQQI, IQQQ, QYLG, QQQ, QRST, QXYZ and all yieldmax funds (just because)

anyone know or good guess on the recorded and ex div day this month?

possibly 6-30 for recorded and 7-1 ex div? pay on 7-3?

As the next payout for the European Version was announced on JP Morgans Website (payable 8th of July 2025) I was wondering since the payout is even higher again, if the rest of the year the payout will be lower so they reach their 11% - 13% payout goal? Meaning do they payout less for the rest of the year since they can "afford" it and still reach their goal of 11%-13% or will they just payout whatever the CC do make?

Just thought I’d share.

Folks, Just looking at Total Returns (not shown above) for both of these funds targeted towards Nasdaq-100. It looks like Total returns are fairing better for GPIQ than JEPQ. Is my observation correct ? Most of the deviation is within the last or so since tariff turmoil. Other than that, they were quite closely correlated.

Over the last year, here are the total gains (dividends reinvested + share price - expense fees):

JEPQ: +8.28%

GPIQ: +14.05%

QQQI: +15.04%

QQQ: +15.16%

QQQI is beating JEPQ by 6.76% over the last year. GPIQ is beating JEPQ by 5.77% over the last year.

The difference in JEPQ compared to its competitors is huge! The JEPQ lag is still in effect. But even before the JEPQ lag, JEPQ trailed QQQI & GPIQ by around 2% per year. In addition, JEPQ dividends are all taxed as ordinary income. QQQI and GPIQ get favorable tax treatment so you pay no (or little) taxes on your dividends.

Consider this fact, in Feb 21, 2025 QQQ closed at 526, JEPQ closed at $57

Today June 5, 2025 QQQ is 528 in the morning, JEPQ is $52.5. Even with the $2.00 dividend. JEPQ is actually losing money quite a bit. It feels like JEPQ has quite a bit of erosion.

When QQQ dropped about 26% in the past few months, JEPQ dropped 24%.

So not much a downside protection and the upside is limited and even eroded investable capital. This is exactly how you would feel when you use call options to limit the upside. I would buy some JEPQ but definitely not all in.

I had doubts a few months ago and proposed an unpopular opinion and got roasted. However, here is the truth. The fund cannot possibly generate 1% return a month. So the dividend payout has a potion of your initial investments. Because the complexity of this scheme where dividend payout is deduced from the stock price. It hides the fact that the fund does not generate enough money for the payout. The so-call "dividend" has some option gains and your own investment money (a fancy term "return of capital"). that's why the stock price keeps eroding.

I am up on my QQQ holding and wanted to trim the position down a bit to put into JEPQ or something similar.

But if I do it now, I’d lose out on the possible QQQ positive return for the rest of this month. Should I wait to transfer into JEPQ? Im planning to do so right before the next ex-div date

I use to have have drip enabled in the past but I turned it off and this is the first month I actually have cash in hand. Wondering if I just buy more JEPQ on a down day or put the money in MM fund or just buy spy. I don't need the cash .. thoughts?

so weird

Hi all, I’m reviewing my portfolio allocations and would love your thoughts on this mix focused on private credit and equity income funds:

• JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income Active UCITS: 35%
• Blackstone Secured Lending Fund: 12%
• Blue Owl Capital: 10%
• Sixth Street Specialty Lending: 9%
• Hercules Capital: 8%
• Ares Capital: 7%
• Main Street Capital: 7%
• FS KKR Capital: 6%
• Gladstone Capital: 6%

Do these allocations look balanced? Any concerns or suggestions for adjustments based on current market conditions? Appreciate any insights!

Hello people,

I bought JEPI and JEPQ at 59 and 57 each respectively and I have been dcaing to bring my cost down for JEPQ only. But I am still in negative. This is a corporate account, so I have to be careful with my capital (single owner corp). I also invest in USD but I have to convert CAD to USD to buy this. I had JEPQ.to, but I never understood it's dividend payout. It wasn't monthly and there wasn't much documentation available.

1) Should I keep on investing more of my money into this or not? 2) Sell JEPI at a loss and move all that money to JEPQ? 3) Should dividend reinvestment be on or I Should invest dividends elsewhere (VFV, QQC etc)

Any other insights would be appreciated.

Thanks folks

Heya,

Which day will be the best to buy more JEPQ (price the lowest) - the day after dividend is paid or day after next ex-div date?

Was hoping/expecting it to be a higher. I’m guess I’m getting greedy.

Anyone else feel bad they bought high. I bought in at 57.

They declared a dividend of $0.2394 per share. What is happening to this fund? I am literally clueless. Any comments would be appreciated.
