SLLS Investment Objective and Strategy
Defiance Solana LightningSpread™ Income ETF describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Tidal Trust II.
Investment objective
The Funds primary investment objective is to seek current income.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that seeks (i) to generate income and (ii) capital appreciation. The Funds strategy combines (1) synthetic long exposure to the share price of the Solana ETF (SOLZ or the Underlying ETF), and (2) the use of options strategies designed to generate options premiums. The Fund will also maintain an allocation to cash, money market funds, or U.S. Treasuries (generally 50% to 100% of assets) to provide liquidity, serve as margin, and collateralize its derivative positions. SOLZ is an actively managed ETF that seeks to participate in 100% of the returns of Solana. From time to time, when the Adviser determines it necessary or appropriate (e.g., due to market, regulatory or operational constraints), the Fund may substitute for the Underlying ETF other pooled vehicles (i.e., other ETFs or exchange-traded products) with substantially similar investment objectives and strategies as the Underlying ETF (Alternative Underlying ETPs).
The Fund does not invest directly in Solana or any other digital assets. The Fund does not invest directly in derivatives that track the performance of Solana or any other digital assets. The Fund does not invest in or seek direct exposure to the current spot or cash price of Solana. Investors seeking direct exposure to the price of Solana should consider an investment other than the Fund. For additional details about bitcoin and the Solana blockchain, see the prospectus section titled Additional Information About the Funds. Synthetic Exposure to the Underlying ETF Rather than purchasing shares of the Underlying ETF directly, the Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by establishing synthetic exposure to the Underlying ETF through derivative instruments. These instruments include combinations of long at-the-money call options and short put options on the Underlying ETF (synthetic long positions), total return swaps referencing the Underlying ETF, and, from time to time, in-the-money call options.
These instruments are designed to provide economic exposure comparable to that of directly holding the Underlying ETF, as their values generally move in close correlation with the price of the Underlying ETF. Through these positions, the Fund seeks to maintain investment exposure approximately equal to 100% of the Underlying ETF over the term of the contracts. However, tracking differences may occur prior to expiration. Options Strategies Seeking Premiums Separately, the Fund employs options strategies focused on generating option premiums. The primary strategy involves selling (writing) put spreads on the Underlying ETF with weekly or shorter expirations. By selling put spreads, the Fund receives premiums from counterparties that pay for the right to sell at a specified price. These premiums are an important driver of the Funds cash distributions.
The Adviser typically executes one or more option trades each week as part of this strategy, although actual results will vary and are not guaranteed. Selling put spreads exposes the Fund to potential losses if the price of the Underlying ETF declines between the strike prices of the sold and purchased puts. While option selling can generate recurring premiums, it also increases downside risk. The Adviser may adjust strike levels, frequency, or other parameters of the options strategy based on market conditions and volatility. The Funds options activity is expected to result in high portfolio turnover. For additional details about the Funds options strategies, see the prospectus section titled Additional Information About the Funds. Cash Distributions The Fund seeks to provide cash distributions on a twice weekly basis.
Options premiums earned through the Funds options strategies contribute to the Funds cash distributions. Actual distribution amounts will vary based on market conditions, realized option premiums, and Fund performance. Distributions may include income, capital gains, and/or a return of capital (ROC). ROC generally represents a return of an investors own capital rather than income generated by the Funds investments. If the Funds returns are insufficient to meet its targeted distribution levels, distributions will reduce the Funds net asset value (NAV). See the prospectus section titled Additional Information About the Funds for further details on ROC and option premiums. Additional Fund Attributes Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest so that at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, have economic exposure to the Underlying ETF through derivative instruments.
For the purposes of this policy, Underlying ETF refers to SOLZ as well as any Alternative Underlying ETPs. The Fund is classified as a non-diversified investment company under the 1940 Act, which means that the Fund may invest a high percentage of its assets in a fewer number of issuers. The Funds investment exposure will be concentrated in (or substantially exposed to) the same industry or groups of industries, if any, to which the Underlying ETF is concentrated. There is no guarantee that the Funds investment strategy will be successful, and investors may lose some or all of their investment. Solana ETF - SOLZ The Solana ETF (SOLZ) is an actively managed ETF that seeks to achieve its investment objective primarily though managed exposure to SOL futures contracts that trade only on an exchange registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (Solana Futures Contracts), and cash, cash-like instruments or high quality securities that serve as collateral to the Funds investments in Solana Futures Contracts (Collateral Investments).
In seeking its investment objective, the Fund seeks to participate in 100% of the returns of SOL. Before making an investment decision an investor should carefully review SOLZs prospectus and risk factors.
