I am downgrading JEPI from a strong buy to a hold due to its underperformance compared to peers and the S&P 500 during recent sell-offs. JEPI's rules-based options strategy offers stability but lacks the flexibility of competitors like GPIX and QQQI, resulting in less upside and lower payouts during volatility....

The ETF offers diversified, low-volatility exposure to US large caps and mid-caps, with a lower P/E than the S&P 500....

JEPI has amassed $39.63 billion in assets under management since its inception in 2020, establishing itself as a leading high-income investment product due to its blend of income and appreciation. I prefer JEPI to JEPQ for conservative investors because it offers lower volatility, broader diversification across the S&P 500, and a stronger focus on risk mitigation compared to JEPQ. I am anticipating strong performance and sustained high yields, particularly if the Federal Reserve cuts rates, enhancing JEPI's appeal as an income-focused investment....
