Description: HEQT Simplify Exchange Traded December 29, 2025

The Simplify Exchange Traded Fund (NYSE ARCA: HEQT) pursues its objective by holding at least 80% of net assets (plus any investment-purpose borrowings) in equity securities, chiefly via ETFs that replicate the S&P 500 Index. It overlays a “put/spread collar” options strategy to limit downside risk while capping upside potential, effectively hedging the portfolio against broad market declines.

Key metrics as of the latest filing (Q3 2024) show an expense ratio of 0.30%, an assets-under-management (AUM) of roughly $250 million, and an average daily trading volume of about 150,000 shares, indicating moderate liquidity. The fund’s performance is closely tied to macro-level drivers of the S&P 500, such as U.S. monetary policy, corporate earnings trends, and consumer confidence indices. Because the collar limits losses, the fund tends to underperform in strong bull markets but offers a smoother return profile during heightened volatility, making it attractive for risk-averse investors seeking equity exposure with downside protection.
