INDEX ROLL
Passive index investing strategy designed by combining long-term equity anticipation securities (LEAPS) and index funds. The investor must roll over a set of LEAP options in order to be exposed in a long-term movement of an index. The leverage from the options lets investors zoom profits, which can lead to outperforming an index in the long run.
