NAPLES, Fla., March 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Capital Wealth Planning, LLC

Capital Wealth Planning, LLC (CWP) today proudly announced its Enhanced Dividend Income SMA (separately managed account) strategy received a 5-Star Morningstar™ rating amongst 28 peer option writing SMAs in the category. To learn more about the Morningstar rating methodologies click here.

"We are very pleased to receive this recognition amongst a truly quality group of peer managers. Our strategy offers a unique story that has drawn a large amount of demand from regional broker/dealer and wirehouse SMA platforms," says CIO and Founder of Capital Wealth Planning, Kevin Simpson. "The DOL ruling has started to play a crucial role in the decision-making process for many Financial Advisors now searching for transparent and fairly-priced SMA offerings and the Enhanced Dividend Income SMA offers a unique option to fill that need."

The Enhanced Dividend Income Strategy features a concentrated domestic equity portfolio of 20 to 25 mega-cap blue chips from the S&P 100. The objective of the portfolio is to achieve a consistent 5% to 7% combined yield from dividends and option premiums. Our goal is to earn 2.5% to 3% of annual portfolio income from the dividends and 2% to 5% from the option premiums, which is dependent on levels of volatility and market conditions. "The strategy is managed on a total return basis and we exercise patience when making decisions," Simpson added. To earn 2% to 5% of annual income from option premium, a tactical covered call overlay which covers roughly 40% to 70% of the portfolio on average over the course of the year is what CWP managers are shooting for.
