Portfolio performance comparison between an options-based portfolio approach and the Nasdaq Composite. The annual performance data from 2021 and 2022 is overlaid. These data demonstrate portfolio robustness, largely matching and outpacing the broader market returns throughout a bull market run (2021) and mitigating losses during a market downturn (2022). These results were achieved with substantially reduced portfolio risk and a much lower portfolio beta (measure of portfolio risk).
As of January 24th, 2023 the top 10 holdings (accounting for 53% of the weight) in the Nasdaq-100 are Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Nvidia, Alphabet, Tesla, Meta Platforms, Broadcom, Pepsi and Costco. The options-based portfolio possesses extensive overlap with the Nasdaq-100 in terms of depth and breath of options and long-term stock positions. Notable long equity positions include seven of the top 10 holdings (Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Nvidia, Alphabet, Meta Platforms and Costco) along with Adobe, Netflix, Qualcomm, Intel, AMD, Starbucks, PayPal, Lululemon and Invesco QQQ ETF. Thus, the comparator of choice is the Nasdaq-100 to benchmark the growth/technology centric strategy of an options-based approach.
