FBY Adds Yields To A Meta Allocation And Partly Cushions Volatility
META
Published: June 24, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

Meta's AI-driven growth has delivered strong returns, but faces limits amid competition, regulatory risks, and rising investor caution about future topline growth. The YieldMax META Option Income Strategy ETF (FBY) offers high monthly income and partly cushions Meta's volatility, making it suitable for those seeking downside protection. On the other hand, FBY's covered call strategy caps upside during Meta rallies and may underperform in sideways markets, so it's not ideal for pure growth investors.

FBY: Far From Being An Optimal Strategy For Holding META
META
Published: June 22, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

FBY employs a series of options strategies on META, generating high distributions for investors, but caps upside potential while exposing investors to full downside risk. Despite the substantial monthly distribution yield (50.57%), FBY underperformed META shares by a significant margin on a total return basis due to the strategy's design. Given the risks, value decay, and lack of diversification, I recommend a SELL rating for FBY, favoring direct META investment for better total returns.
