House verdict
Income sleeve — capped upside. Covered calls convert future growth into current income. It does its job in the House — monthly cash flow — but it will lag in strong bull runs by design.
✓Coverage check:Distribution is option premium plus dividends, not company earnings — coverage is structural, not an earnings payout ratio.
!Yield check:~7.3% is distribution, not growth. Counted as income only; total return is the honest scoreboard.
JEPI in the House
Room: Foundation Income — one of the House's own holdings, held at a 17% target weight. Target 17% — the foundation layer. Equity premium income, paid monthly, that the rest of the House stands on.
Every card is graded the same way and re-checked against the company's own filings. The Weekly House Score reports whatever crosses a House threshold; the House Tracker is the spreadsheet the framework itself runs on.
