Fund Identity
What it is, who runs it, where it lives.
The TDAQ Lift ETF seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 130% of the daily performance of TDAQ..
The Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in financial instruments designed to provide 120%-140% exposure to the daily price performance of TDAQ, rebalancing to 130% if exposure drifts outside that range. The Fund primarily uses swap agreements with financial institutions to obtain this leveraged exposure, and may also purchase call options (including FLEX Options) on TDAQ. The remaining 40-80% of the portfolio is held in U.S. Government securities, money market funds, short-term bond ETFs, or investment-grade corporate debt as collateral. The Fund rebalances daily and is designed for sophisticated investors who actively monitor their portfolios.
