QQQI doesn’t have as much history as JEPQ. Are you worried the principal won’t do as well?

I'm currently building an income-focused portfolio with ETFs like **QQQI, JEPQ, SPYI, BTCI, and IGLD**. So far, I'm earning about **$267.31 annually**, which breaks down to around **$22.28 per month**, with a **14.63% yield**. My goal is to hit **$1,000 per year** in passive income.
I'm curious to hear from you all:
* What **income ETFs** are you investing in right now?
* What's your **strategy** for growing your income stream?
* Do you prioritize **monthly distributions**, **yield**, **growth potential**, or a mix?
Would love to hear what’s working (or not) for you. Any tips or insights are appreciated!

I plan on retiring(burnt out medical worker) and living on dividends in the next few years. Im at about $3200/month in divis rt now goal is $5000/month.
BITO, TSLY, CONY, MSTY, AMZY, NVDY, JEPQ

how long have you had JEPQ?

I've been retired since 2003, I'm now 73. I now make much more per month in dividends than I did in salary while I was working, plus wife's pension and SS.
Major holdings include: ARCC JEPI JEPQ MAIN OBDC SCHD, many more minor holdings,, and many individual IG corporate bonds (bonds ~45% of portfolio). Not investment advice.

Yes. JEPQ SPYI FEPI AIPI. Retired and enjoying life.

You need a roughly 2 million dollar principal in safe diverse dividend stocks or 1.2-1.5 in stuff like JEPQ/SPYI etc etc.

Keep in mind dividneds from JEPQ are taxed as regular income. If you plan to put the money in a retirment account that is fine. But it is a taxable account I would use QQQI. Very similar fund seeing the same index. QQQI yields 13% while JEPQ 10%. But the big difference is QQQI alas does tax loss harvesting to lowe rate tax on the dividneds you receive. I had JEPQ but replaced it with QQQI that reason.

I have both JEPQ and JEPI and plan on keeping them, but are there others that you recommend that follow different markets sectors?

Sounds like a great strategy. Go for it. JEPQ, SPYI and JEPI for riskier yields, O, MAIN, ET, for more traditional yields, and SCHD for long term yield growth are all ones I like.
Good luck.

I'm not a fan of MSTY. So, I'd sell it and put all proceeds into JEPQ, or QQQI, or SPYI, or SCHD

There’s some good dividend ETFs out there especially for the time frame you are looking at. QYLD JEPQ . The two you mentioned are fine.

Just look at the price history. It's constantly declining. So the yield is not sustainable.
Also, look at how it compares to other Nasdaq 100 covered call funds. It underperforms QQQI, JEPQ, and QDTE.
Plus, read articles about the fund. It's going to change strategy on the 27th to target a 30% yield (including a rename).
Don't just yield chase.

There is JEPQ.EU. JEPI.EU they both ucits, they for europiens .

Investing in JEPY/JEPQ from europe

This is what I'd do in his situation. Maybe try to find an extra $2000 and buy 1000 shares of JEPQ. Price is good right now.

The one drawback if it matters to you with JEPQ is the higher expense ration. Compared to SCHD which has qualified dividends where you’ll pay less tax. But both are good ETF’s

It really depends on your age, or more accurately when you intend to stop working. Also if you intend to make a "life changing" purchase like buying a home, attending college, or moving to a new location. And with those thing time frame matters as well.
Having said all that If I was 5+ years from "retirement" and no life changing purchases 100% in an S&P500 Index fund. Doing this in an after tax account, Roth, or 401K works equally as well.
Somewhere between the five and three years of retirement, you might want to start building your "pension" fund. You do this by buying income producing assets such as bonds or dividend paying stocks.
Taxes matter and If I were doing this all in an after tax account, I might start sooner, with the purpose of doing it more gradually in order to take advantage of qualified dividends.
If you don't have an interest in individual stocks or bond, then just buy an appropriate fund. One thing you can do is by 50% JEPQ and 50% SCHD and have your portfolio spin off about 8%.

Hey gang, looking for some good UCITS ETFs (thanks EU) that track the US market, something comparable to SCHD, QQQ, JEPQ, etc. with decent yield and dividend growth; any ideas?
I found some decent candidates (i.e. GLDV, HDLG) but would like to know if there are any truly worthwhile ones that might have escaped the radar.

Why not just take 200k of that portfolio and buy a reasonable basket of CEFs that pay at least 10% dividends a year and go to the beach? Throw some JEPQ and SPYI in there for good measure.
