Beyond Buy and Hold: Si Katara on Zero-Day Options, Income Innovation & the Future of ETFs


Listen Later

In this episode of Lead-Lag Live, I sit down with Si Katara, Founder and CEO of Tap Alpha, to explore how zero-day options are reshaping income investing for everyday investors.

From engineering background to ETF innovation, Katara shares how Tap Alpha’s TSPY ETF delivers daily option overlays on the S&P 500 — capturing upside while generating consistent, tax-efficient income in any market environment.

In this episode:
– Why traditional income products no longer work for investors today
– How zero-day options can mitigate risk and boost returns
– The math behind daily vs. monthly covered call strategies
– Why ETFs solve tax inefficiencies in options-based income
– How Tap Alpha is bridging Wall Street strategies for Main Street investors

Lead-Lag Live brings you inside conversations with the financial thinkers who shape markets. Subscribe for interviews that go deeper than the noise.
