The VistaShares VistaShares Target 15 Berkshire Select Income ETF (NYSE: OMAH) represents a first-of-its-kind approach, designed to provide investors with core equity exposure, high monthly income, and a strategy built to adapt across market cycles.
The VistaShares Target 15™ Berkshire Select Income ETF (Ticker: OMAH) introduces a distinctive strategy that combines traditional value investing with a modern income-generating overlay. Built on the foundation of Berkshire Hathaway's long-standing investment philosophy, the ETF is structured to offer consistent monthly income while maintaining exposure to a portfolio of resilient, large-cap equities.
OMAH’s portfolio consists of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK.B) and a curated selection of Berkshire’s top 20 publicly disclosed equity holdings. This core is overlaid with a data-driven options strategy designed to pursue an annual income target of 15%, distributed monthly at approximately 1.25%. The strategy is actively managed by the VistaShares investment committee, leveraging fundamental research and systematic risk management.
5 Key Reasons Why VistaShares Believes VistaShares Target 15 Berkshire Select Income ETF (NYSE: OMAH) is a Prime Investment For 2025
OMAH was built with the evolving needs of income-seeking investors in mind. Traditional equity income strategies have faced headwinds in low-yield environments. OMAH aims to solve this by implementing a disciplined options overlay strategy while maintaining exposure to companies with long-term track records of performance and stability.
The ETF is actively managed by VistaShares in partnership with Tidal Financial Group and follows a transparent, research-driven process. With its first monthly distribution completed—aligned with the fund’s 1.25% monthly income target—OMAH has begun delivering on its stated objective. Importantly, while the strategy aims to enhance income, it is not structured for downside protection and should be viewed in the context of a broader asset allocation strategy.
The VistaShares Target 15™ Berkshire Select Income ETF combines core equity investing with options-based income generation. The equity portion mirrors the 20 largest holdings in Berkshire Hathaway’s portfolio, including direct exposure to BRK.B. The fund is designed for investors seeking income, supported by professional management and disciplined portfolio construction.

Artificial Intelligence Risk. Common stocks are generally exposed to greater risk than other types of securities, such as preferred stock and debt obligations, because common stockholders generally have inferior rights to receive payment from specific issuers. Technology Sector Risks. The Fund will invest substantially in companies in the technology sector, and therefore the performance of the Fund could be negatively impacted by events affecting this sector.
Concentration Risk. To the extent that the Fund concentrates in an industry, it will be subject to the risk that economic, political, or other conditions that have a negative effect on that industry will negatively impact the Fund to a greater extent than if its assets were invested in a wider variety of industries.
New Fund Risk. The Fund is a recently organized management investment company with no operating history. As a result, prospective investors do not have an extensive track record or history on which to base their investment decisions.
