QDVO Commentary February 2026

Download PDF

 
Equities extended their advance into February amid resilient economic data and a stabilizing policy backdrop, though persistent inflation concerns and sector-specific pressures added complexity. The S&P 500 held onto modest gains for much of the month, supported by stronger-than-expected labor data that tempered expectations for near-term Federal Reserve rate cuts, but finished lower as leadership broadened beyond the mega-cap technology stocks that have driven returns in recent years, signaling improving market breadth. With earnings season nearing completion, 96% of S&P 500 companies reported fourth quarter 2025 results, and 73% delivered positive earnings-per-share surprises, underscoring solid underlying fundamentals even as late-month results from large technology firms highlighted both AI-driven efficiencies and lingering supply chain vulnerabilities. Inflation fears resurfaced late in the month following misses in headline and core Producer Price Index data, raising questions around the feasibility of rate cuts despite the announcement that Kevin Warsh is expected to succeed Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve Chair later this year. The Producer Price Index (PPI) measures the average change overtime in the selling prices received by domestic producers for their output and is measured and produced by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The prices included in the PPI are from the first commercial transaction for many products and some services. Geopolitical risk remained elevated as U.S.-led military action alongside Israel in Iran occurred on the final day of the month, when markets were closed, contributing to oil price volatility and added uncertainty.

During February, QDVO returned -2.52% (NAV), while the benchmark, the S&P 500 Growth Index returned -3.39%. The Fund continues to outperform the index to start the year marking strong performance relative to the benchmark, however, has seen negative performance on an absolute basis given the markets tilt away from growth and into value. Notably, Consumer Staples (+7.50%) and Health Care (4.77%) were strong contributors to the Fund, while Information Technology (-4.16%) and Consumer Discretionary (-6.99%) detracted from returns.1 Positions that contributed most significantly were Netflix Inc (NFLX), AMGEN Inc (AMGN), and Hasbro Inc (HAS). Biggest detractors were Nvidia Corp. (NVDA) and Amazon Inc (AMZN).

 

The Fund ended the month with 18 calls written against it, covering 13.11% of the portfolio.2

Distributions have been classified as a return of capital and may be comprised of option premiums, dividends, capital gains, and interest payments. As of the most recent distribution, 96% was estimated to be return of capital. See Form 19(a)-1. There is no guarantee the ETF will pay a distribution. 30-Day SEC Yield is a standard yield calculation developed by the Securities and Exchange Commission that allows for fairer comparisons among bond funds. It is based on the most recent month end. This figure reflects the income earned from dividends – excluding option income – during the period after deducting the Fund’s expenses for the period.

Growth stocks tend to be more volatile than certain other types of stocks and their prices usually fluctuate more dramatically than the overall stock market.
