- NestYield Total Return Guard ETF (EGGS) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks current monthly income as its primary objective, with secondary exposure to the share price returns of select U.S. large-cap equity securities, particularly innovators in sectors such as technology, communication services, and utilities; it employs a concentrated portfolio of 10 to 25 high-conviction holdings, including direct equity investments and synthetic exposure via options contracts implemented by sub-advisers Nest Egg ETFs, LLC and ZEGA Financial, LLC; core strategies encompass selective covered call options (primarily out-of-the-money), options spreads, tactical hedges on individual positions, the S&P 500, and Nasdaq indices, plus minor allocations to cash or U.S. Treasuries not exceeding 10% of assets, targeting approximately 15% average annual income while managing downside risk and volatility.
The ETF, part of NestYield ETFs' lineup which also includes the NestYield Dynamic Income ETF (EGGY) and NestYield Visionary ETF (EGGQ), operates within the U.S. equity income and hedged equity segments, serving investors pursuing balanced total return through income generation, growth, and risk mitigation amid market fluctuations; it trades on NYSE Arca with a 0.95% expense ratio, monthly distributions (recent rate of 15.31% as of November 2025), and net assets of approximately $41.49 million.
Founded in 2024 and headquartered in Downey, California (8141 2nd St., Suite 305), NestYield ETFs was established by Chief Investment Strategist Mr. Ramos, who brings over 30 years of financial services experience from affiliate Ramos Capital Group (founded 2016); the firm, operating as Nest Egg ETFs, LLC dba NestYield ETFs, is distributed by unaffiliated Foreside Fund Services, LLC, with no reported subsidiaries or parent relationships.
