Goldman Sachs launched the S&P 500 Premium Income ETF (GPIX) in October 2023, offering a similar income strategy to JPMorgan's JEPI but with a structural tweak that allows more equity upside capture. While both ETFs pay monthly income near 8.2%, GPIX returned 73.52% from launch to mid-2026, significantly outperforming JEPI's 31.57% return over a similar period. GPIX writes calls on part of its S&P 500 holdings, preserving more upside, whereas JEPI uses equity-linked notes against a low-volatility basket, limiting gains during rallies. Investors seeking income plus growth may consider adding GPIX alongside JEPI, while JEPI remains preferable for capital preservation in downturns. Tax considerations favor switching within tax-advantaged accounts.
