What is SPYC?

The adviser seeks to achieve the Fund s investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities of U.S. companies and applying a convexity option overlay strategy to the equity investments. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of U.S. companies, primarily by purchasing exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"). The adviser does not frequently trade U.S. equities but seeks to maintain consistent exposure to the U.S. equity market. Up to twenty percent of the Fund s net assets will be subject to the Fund s convexity option overlay. The option overlay consists of purchasing exchange-traded and over the counter ( OTC ) put and call options on the S&P 500 Index or an S&P 500 Index ETF.

What is ETF correlation?

Correlation is a measure of the strength of the relationship between two ETFs. It quantifies the degree to which prices of the two ETFs typically move together.

Here, correlation is measured over the past year with the Pearson correlation coefficient (Pearon’s r), which ranges from -1 to 1.

Using ETF correlations in portfolio and strategy construction

ETF correlations can help you create investing strategies and portfolios. Use them to:

  • Build a diversified portfolio from uncorrelated or inversely correlated ETFs with the aim of minimizing portfolio risk.
  • Compare correlated or related ETFs to find one with a lower expense ratio or higher trading volume.
  • Create an investing strategy that hedges an ETF with an uncorrelated or inversely correlated ETF.
