BlackRock's iShares TLTW, LQDW, and HYGW Bond ETFs Offer Over 10% Monthly Annualized Yields Through Covered Call Strategies
Three BlackRock iShares bond exchange-traded funds (ETFs)—the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond BuyWrite Strategy ETF (TLTW), the iShares Investment Grade Corporate Bond BuyWrite Strategy ETF (LQDW), and the iShares High Yield Corporate Bond BuyWrite Strategy ETF (HYGW)—are distributing over 10% in annualized yields monthly. These ETFs achieve this by pairing underlying iShares bond funds with covered call overlays, converting option premiums into cash distributions. TLTW offers over 10%, LQDW provides 12.3%, and HYGW yields around 10.7% on a trailing 12-month basis. The current environment of high Treasury yields and elevated rate volatility is contributing to richer option premiums, fueling these double-digit payouts. Over the past year, HYGW posted the strongest total return at approximately 6%, followed by TLTW also around 6%, and LQDW at about 4%.
