The Amplify Energy & Natural Resources Covered Call ETF (NDIV) targets over 10% annual income by combining dividends from energy-related stocks with premiums from covered call options. This dual-income approach provides exposure to the commodity sector while enhancing yield, but the income varies with energy market volatility. Recent elevated distributions in early 2026 were driven by a spike in crude oil prices and option premiums, not a permanent increase. Investors should expect fluctuating monthly payouts linked to commodity cycles, making NDIV suitable for those comfortable with variable income rather than steady monthly checks.
