Covered call strategies have gained prominence in recent years as a means of achieving steady income while participating in the equity market. This approach involves writing options on stocks or ETFs, allowing investors to collect premiums while potentially benefiting from price appreciation. What makes covered calls particularly intriguing is their ability to shine in times of market turbulence, offering a valuable cushion against volatility.
