Is my only risk on this investment the loss of my interest payments or is it possible to lose my principal as well?

It's a risk managed income ETF. A Nationwide Financial product for retirees and the like who need to beat inflation but can't afford to risk their capital. The strategy is to write covered calls and buy protective puts to hedge. My capital is definitely more at risk than a Treasury Bond but I prefer this product over the longer term.

How about $T @ 9%+
LUMN @ 8.4%
The whole point is iBond is a risk free investment,
if I just want yield and willing to take some risk (I also know how to write call and buy put to hedge)
People are throwing all kind of random names to comparing to a "risk free" investment
Yes US Gov always has a chance of default but IF that happens we are talking about financial armageddon and every asset class will be impacted
