Direxion Targets Growth Stocks With New Income-Focused ETF Suite

Investors seeking yield from high-growth tech firms now have a new option as Direxion launches six ETFs focused on individual high-volatility stocks. By writing call options on names like Nvidia and Tesla, the firm aims to generate income without relying on the traditional dividend payouts often absent in the tech sector.

Direxion Targets Growth Stocks With New Income-Focused ETF Suite

The new suite, dubbed Defined Income Boost, covers six specific companies: Nvidia (NVIB), Tesla (TSIB), Alphabet (GOOGL), Meta (MEIB), Palantir (PLIB), and Micron (MUIB). These funds mark a departure for the firm, which is historically recognized for its leveraged and inverse trading products. Instead of leveraging market moves, this strategy uses a rules-based Cboe index to pursue a consistent income stream derived from derivatives rather than corporate dividends.

Mo Sparks, Chief Product Officer at Direxion, emphasized that the firm is applying its existing derivatives discipline to a non-leveraged framework. The funds intend to distribute payouts twice a month, though these are contingent on the performance of the underlying stock relative to the options sold. Because these are non-diversified funds concentrating on single issuers, they carry distinct risks, including potential loss of principal and performance variance compared to holding the underlying stocks directly.
