NSEP is a strong investment choice providing 18% upside and 15% downside protection for QQQ exposure.

And I'll tell you one name that we're really you know, it's it's an ETF, but it's a packaged options strategy around the Qs, which is really powerful for clients that are maybe wanting to uh ride the AI roller coaster, but they want a a seat belt.

We call this the AI ride with a seat belt. It would be the NSEP, which is the September version of a put call spread packaged around the uh QQQ position. Marley, that gives us as much as 18% upside potential on the Qs, and it protects the first 15% of losses over a September-to-September year-over-year. That's a powerful place to put some money.
