Amplify CWP International Enhanced Dividend Income ETF (IDVO) provides monthly income from international dividend-paying ADRs and covered calls, with a yield of 4-6%. However, it is unhedged against currency fluctuations, meaning a strong US dollar can reduce or erase the income when foreign dividends convert back to dollars. While IDVO has performed well recently, with a 13% gain year-to-date and 110% total return since inception, 77% of its distributions are return of capital, not earned income, which affects long-term value. Investors seeking international income with currency risk tolerance may find it suitable, but those wanting to avoid currency swings should consider hedged alternatives like HEFA or DBEF.
