MALVERN, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pacer ETFs, the leading U.S. issuer in free cash flow ETFs*, adds to its successful Dividend Multiplier ETF Series with the launch of the Pacer Metaurus Nasdaq-100 Dividend Multiplier 600 ETF (Nasdaq: QSIX). This innovative ETF, launched in partnership with Metaurus Advisors, LLC, is designed to provide investors with 600% of the ordinary dividend yield of the Nasdaq-100, while maintaining modestly reduced exposure to the overall performance of the index, delivering a unique mix of growth potential and consistent income.
“Investors are eager for income while aiming to capture the long-term capital appreciation that an index like the Nasdaq offers,” said Sean O’Hara, President at Pacer ETF Distributors.
QSIX aims to deliver six times the dividend yield of the Nasdaq-100 without using leverage or options by separating the Nasdaq-100’s return components into dividend cash flow and price appreciation/depreciation. The fund reduces equity exposure to the Nasdaq-100, reallocating the remaining capital to buy cash-like instruments as collateral, enhancing dividend participation. These components are then repackaged into the fund, offering six times the yield with approximately 90% exposure to the index. The transparent, straightforward approach makes it an attractive choice for income-focused investors.
“We’ve seen increasing demand for QDPL, our dividend multiplier ETF that aims to provide four times the dividend to the S&P 500, and we’ve been really pleased with our partnership with Metaurus,” added Joe Thomson, Founder and President of Pacer. “With QSIX we see an equally compelling opportunity that we did with QDPL, to deliver investors and advisors an innovative way to generate income while maintaining equity exposure to a core index.”
