OMAH: Likely Winner Along With Berkshire Hathaway In A Mega-Cap Growth Bear Market

Gary Gambino 7.25K Followers Follow Summary VistaShares Target 15 Berkshire Select Income ETF has outperformed Berkshire Hathaway since its March 2025 IPO, delivering its 15% annual yield target. OMAH’s portfolio is 10% Berkshire Hathaway and 90% “equal”-weighted top US Berkshire holdings, minimizing exposure to cash and capital-intensive businesses. The fund’s options strategy—short-dated, out-of-the-money call and put spreads—generates high income while limiting downside and minimizing forced roll risk. In the possible eventual case of a mega-cap growth bear market as in 2000, OMAH should be better at preserving capital than the broader index-linked CC ETFs.

( BRK.A )( BRK.B ) often draw commenters who use quotes from Warren This article was written by Gary Gambino 7.25K Followers Follow I retired early after 22 years in the energy industry with roles in engineering, planning, and financial analysis. I have managed my own portfolio since 1998 and have met my goal to match the S+P 500 return over the long term with lower volatility and higher income. I mostly write on positions I already hold or am considering changing. I prefer to hold positions for the long-term unless there is a compelling reason to sell. I look for investment opportunities without regard to asset class, market cap, sector, or yield. I would rather maximize total return over time by buying when price is low relative to intrinsic value.
