JEPI and JEPQ use equity-linked notes to generate options income — which means their monthly distributions are classified as ordinary income and taxed at your full income rate in a taxable account. SPYI and GPIQ use index options that qualify as Section 1256 contracts, giving 60% of gains automatic long-term capital gains treatment and often classifying a portion as return of capital. This video breaks down exactly how each structure works, runs the after-tax math side by side, and explains why the tax treatment matters even more if you're using a Buy, Borrow, Die strategy in a taxable brokerage account.
