DBMF-N
PAST TOP PICK
May 23, 2023
(A Top Pick Nov 15/22, Down 9%)
A commodities play. Managed futures during uncertainty in the economy. This replicates the largest futures managers in the world at a lower fee than usual. Holds stocks, currencies, bonds and commodities. This ETF did very well last year, but less so now and is struggling. This is a diversifyer in your portfolio long-term.
It holds stocks and bolds, but also is exposed to currencies and commodities. The fund replicates the managed futures CTA index. These managed futures strategies have provided a lot of alpha this year, up 20-25% in the past year, in USD (offering a little more lift). Before 2022, these strategies strategies struggles. Different now because we're in a volatile, inflationary and low-liquid, low-growth market. These conditions lead to active management, which is the essence of DBMF.
Trades in the USA. Include currencies and commodities within product selection. Can also go long, and short in the market. Great way to diversify in a bond/stock portfolio. Usually out-performs when bonds/stocks fall. During periods of high volatility, it is also a great product.
