But the United States's economic partners, and some of its rivals, are also benefitting from having the unorthodox showman back in the Oval Office. Investors are watching the U.S. stock market with both enthusiasm and trepidation: The S&P 500 is up 15% over the past year, Treasuries have remained relatively steady, and the Fed's monetary policy is expected to begin a downwards trajectory.

The stock market-driven volatility has led investors towards exchange-traded funds (ETFs) as long-term investors seek low-risk options that can generate impressive returns.

The JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (NYSEARCA:JEPI) has become a top choice for many investors.

The ETF invests in low-volatility stocks and manages to pay a higher yield through the options call. It outperforms the traditional equity income approach and has a low expense ratio of 0.35%.
