There's a little bit of complexity in that.

Some investors will be familiar with a covered call strategy, which is essentially you hold that basket of stocks and then you write call options where if the stock price rises beyond a certain level, you don't participate in any further upside in those stock prices beyond that point.

So, it's a really strong uplift in terms of your overall income, diversifies your sources of income beyond just those dividends.

Perhaps our expectation isn't that the market is gonna appreciate pretty significantly.

I can trade that off to get the extra income, puts me in a better position.
