XFUNDS announced that the Nicholas Global Equity and Income ETF (GIAX) has surpassed $100 million in assets under management as of June 11, 2026.
This milestone reflects increasing investor interest in actively managed income strategies with global exposure. GIAX was designed to deliver current income while seeking capital appreciation, aligning with rising demand for income-oriented equity strategies.
The ETF was developed in partnership with Tidal Investments and combines three core components: passive global equity ETFs, opportunistic individual stock selections, and strategic options spreads through the selling of call and put spreads to help generate premium income.
This structure positions GIAX as a differentiated global ETF offering that aims to combine yield generation with equity upside. The fund is part of the broader XFUNDS by Nicholas Wealth ETF lineup, which also includes the Nicholas Fixed Income Alternative ETF (FIAX), Nicholas Crypto Income ETF (BLOX), Nicholas Gold Income ETF (GLDN), Nicholas Silver Income ETF (SLVX), Nicholas Nuclear Income ETF (NUKX), Nicholas Defense and Rare Earth Income ETF (WEPN), Nicholas Bitcoin Tail ETF (BHDG), Nicholas Bitcoin and Treasuries AfterDark ETF (NGHT), and the Fitz-Gerald Must Have Portfolio ETF (FITZ).
KEY QUOTES:
“It’s rewarding to see our strategies gain traction with investors who share our goal of thoughtful, long-term growth. Their trust inspires our team as we continue to navigate evolving markets with discipline.”
David Nicholas, Portfolio Manager at XFUNDS
