The S&P 500 (^GSPC 0.74%) is down over 10% from highs set earlier this year. The Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC 1.26%) dropped more than 20% from previous highs at one point and currently sits close to 15% down.
YieldMax Gold Miners Option Income Strategy ETF offers high income but underperforms due to its capped upside, making it less appealing in a bullish gold market.
