  • Can a fund known for delivering gains deliver good passive income? The post How I'd unlock more passive income from the iShares S&P 500 ETF (IVV) appeared first on The Motley Fool Australia.

The article discusses strategies for generating passive income through investment in the iShares S&P 500 ETF (IVV). It highlights that while the S&P 500 itself does not directly provide dividends, many of its constituent companies do, which indirectly contributes to the ETF's yield. The author suggests several methods to enhance passive income from IVV: reinvesting dividends to benefit from compound growth, employing a dividend capture strategy where one buys the ETF before the ex-dividend date and sells shortly after, and using options strategies like covered calls to generate additional income. The piece also touches on the importance of understanding the risks involved, such as market volatility and the potential for capital loss, and emphasizes the need for a long-term investment perspective to truly benefit from passive income streams.
