Income ETF GPIQ Tracking to Double AUM This Year 

The income ETF landscape is one of the most popular and fertile in the ETF ecosystem right now. Whether via covered calls or dividends, income ETFs help investors ride out uncertainty, prepare for retirement, and more. One such fund, the Goldman Sachs Nasdaq-100 Premium Income ETF (GPIQ A), is having a stand out year that may see it double its AUM.Key Takeaways: The income ETF GPIQ has added $1.8 billion YTD, according to ETF Database. The strategy may pique the interest of income ETF investors looking for income as well as performance. The fund is also poised to hit its three-year ETF milestone this fall, another potential catalyst. GPIQ started the year at just over $2.5 billion in AUM. Now, with the year half complete, the fund is rapidly approaching $5 billion AUM.  The strategy charges 29 basis points to actively invest in stocks from the Nasdaq-100. It simultaneously applies a call strategy, selling call options on 25% to 75% of the portfolio’s equity investments. The active income ETF also uses FLEX options to add additional income.  The fund has gathered $1.8 billion in net inflows since January 1, according to ETF Database data, with that approach. In just the last month, it has added almost half a billion in net inflows. Specifically, it has picked up $442 million in net inflows. That has brought the fund’s total AUM to $4.75 billion.  See more: Emerging Markets See Historical Discount: Get Exposure in GSEE Meanwhile, the fund has returned 30.1% over the last 12 months. The strategy’s performance has outperformed the ETF Database Large Cap Blend Equities Category average, which came in at 16.3% in that time. The strategy offered a 9.13% trailing 12-month distribution rate as of May 31, 2026.  Intriguingly, the income ETF has done all of that even before reaching its three-year ETF milestone. That milestone is set for this October, when the fund will be added to key brokerages with a three-year track record to display. Together, that may make GPIQ a fund to watch for those looking at income ETF opportunities. For more news, information, and strategy, visit the Future ETFs Content Hub.
