Options Income from the Single Stocks Investors Follow Most
NEW YORK, July 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Direxion today announced the launch of Defined Income Boost, a suite of six ETFs that seek income by writing call options on individual high-volatility stocks. The six funds are the Direxion NVDA Defined Income Boost ETF (NVIB), Direxion TSLA Defined Income Boost ETF (TSIB), Direxion GOOGL Defined Income Boost ETF (GOIB), Direxion META Defined Income Boost ETF (MEIB), Direxion PLTR Defined Income Boost ETF (PLIB), and Direxion MU Defined Income Boost ETF (MUIB).
Many of the stocks driving today's market pay little or no dividend, leaving income-focused investors to choose between growth names and traditional payers, the mature, slower-growth companies that return cash through steady dividends. At a time when income is increasingly desired by investors, yet harder to get from the names moving the market, Defined Income Boost ETFs offer another path: income drawn from stocks investors already follow, sourced from an options strategy rather than from the position itself. It also extends Direxion's derivatives expertise from leveraged and inverse strategies into income.
"Traders and investors have long known Direxion for precise daily execution in the leveraged and inverse space," said Mo Sparks, Chief Product Officer at Direxion. "Defined Income Boost ETFs bring that same discipline and derivatives expertise to a non-leveraged, income-focused approach. Every fund follows a published, rules-based Cboe index, which is designed to pursue a defined income stream while keeping each fund's behavior more closely aligned with the stock it tracks. It is the first step in a suite we expect to expand over time."

Investing in a Fund is not equivalent to investing directly in the underlying stock. An underlying index's use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The Funds intend to make distributions twice a month that generally reflect the income and gains generated from the underlying index's options strategy. The occurrence and amount of any such distributions depend on the performance of the underlying security relative to the options sold and are not guaranteed.
Direxion Shares ETF Risks – An investment in the ETFs involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The ETFs are subject to certain risks, including imperfect index correlation and market price variance, that may decrease performance. As non-diversified funds, the ETFs may invest in a relatively small number of issuers and, as a result, be subject to greater risk of loss with respect to its portfolio securities. An ETF may concentrate its investments in certain industries or sectors, which can increase volatility. The ETFs may experience greater fluctuation in its net asset value as compared to other investments. These ETFs may be appropriate for investors with a long-term investment time horizon, who primarily seek capital growth, and who are able to tolerate periods of prolonged price declines. Please read each ETF's prospectus for a more complete description of the investment risks. There is no guarantee that an ETF will achieve its investment objective.
