Seasonality
The Simplify Managed Futures Strategy ETF (CTA) invests under normal market conditions in a portfolio of futures contracts spanning equities, U.S. Treasuries, commodities, and foreign exchange. Rather than holding commodity futures directly, the fund gains exposure to those markets by allocating up to 25% of its assets to a wholly-owned Cayman Islands subsidiary, a structure commonly used by U.S. funds to access certain commodity-linked instruments while maintaining tax efficiency.
As a Systematic Trend ETF launched in March 2022, the fund falls within the managed futures category, which relies on rule-based models to identify and follow directional price trends across global asset classes. Managed futures strategies are often used by investors seeking diversification from traditional stock-and-bond holdings, as futures positions can be held long or short and are not directly correlated with equity market returns.
