It has been analyzed that holders of JPMorgan's covered call ETF, JEPQ, face a structural characteristic where recovery takes more than twice as long compared to a general market downturn. This is because high-dividend products utilizing option-selling strategies fully absorb principal losses during market declines while capping gains during rallies. Investors must closely examine the risk of delayed capital loss recovery hidden behind the appeal of high dividends.

Covered call products like JEPQ leave the downside open during stock price declines, severely damaging asset value, while capping the upside due to selling call options, resulting in a long recovery period for the principal. Especially in volatile market conditions, dividend yields fail to keep pace with the rebound speed of the underlying asset, leading to opportunity costs.

There is a high risk that investors might become complacent with dividend yields during a sustained bull market only to find principal recovery delayed, and in a bear market, the drop could be deeper than that of the general index. Future market volatility indices and the trend of the underlying asset, Nasdaq, must be closely monitored.
