Portfolio Highlights
CWP’s Enhanced Dividend Income portfolio (EDIP) is an equity portfolio made up of mega-cap, blue-chip stocks that are diversified across the traditional 10 S&P 500 sectors. The allocation is strategically designed to deliver income through dividends and by tactically selling short-term covered calls against 30-60% of the underlying holdings.
- CWP screens growth and value stock from the DOW 30 and S&P 100 that have a history of increasing dividends and possess strong fundamentals.
- Intent of the strategy is to enhance cash flow and annual income while adding the potential for capital appreciation.
- Unlike a systematic covered call program, CWP is not obligated to continuously cover each individual equity position and limit capital appreciation.
- When one of the underlying stocks demonstrates strength or an increase in implied volatility, CWP managers identify that opportunity and sell call options tactically.
- CWP actively manages sector allocation and opportunities to participate in defensive and cyclical trends given the relevant economic cycle.
