To Nvidia for Income With This New ETF

In noteworthy dividend news earlier this year, Nvidia (NVDA) raised its quarterly dividend by a jaw-dropping 2,400% to 25 cents a share from just a penny. But even with that sizable increase, shares of the semiconductor Goliath yield just 0.44%.The point is that Nvidia is a lot of things, but a prime dividend destination isn’t one of them. However, there are ways to extract income from this storied growth stock. Thanks to the Direxion NVDA Defined Income Boost ETF (NVIB), investors can let someone else do the heavy lifting to generate Nvidia income. NVIB is part of a broader six-ETF suite of income-generating funds launched by Direxion in late July. Four of the new options-based ETFs, including NVIB, are tied to Magnificent Seven stocks. One compelling attribute of NVIB and its five stablemates is that these rookie ETFs are designed to deliver twice-monthly payouts. This helps to ensure a steadier income stream for investors. There’s more to the story, too.Investigating NVIBTargeting a 20% annual distribution yield, NVIB taps into Nvidia stock volatility while also positioning investors for potential (though not promised) participation in some of the chip stock’s upside. These attributes also matter, as Nvidia remains a primary U.S. market bellwether. NVIB’s efforts to capitalize on Nvidia volatility (volatility isn’t always a bad thing) are also relevant because this stock is a newsmaker. For example, last week Nvidia announced the purchase of Hugging Face, a large language model platform (LLM), for $12.9 billion. From a near-term financial perspective, the acquisition isn’t a needle-mover, but it could pay dividends over the long term. “It seems unlikely to us that any LLM builders will move off Hugging Face now that it is owned by a large company (perhaps with a conflict of interest, as Nvidia has an LLM), but the risk is plausible if Nvidia were to unthinkingly tilt the scales toward itself,” noted Morningstar analyst Brian Colello. Over time, the Hugging Face deal could cement Nvidia’s status as an AI leader, generating upside for a stock that some analysts see as undervalued and potentially boosting the case for NVIB along the way. “Overall, Nvidia remains focused on building AI systems and expanding the AI ecosystem. We think this is a wise offensive move, but also defensive. If a world exists where Anthropic and OpenAI both shift to using more in-house chips, Nvidia may emerge with more competitive models,” added Colello.
