Fund Summary
As the global economy undergoes Electrification, the infrastructure necessary to produce and store energy will require substantial amounts of certain metals. This may lead to rising prices for these metals over time.
The Fund seeks total return by investing in metals derivatives instruments and equities (Metals Investments) economically tied to the metals that are necessary for Electrification.
The Adviser uses a proprietary methodology to select the Metals Investments. The Fund’s holdings will consist of instruments tied to industrial metals, precious metals, and rare earth metals that are used in batteries, battery charging infrastructure, and sustainable energy generation and storage infrastructure.
The Metals Derivatives in which the Fund will invest are futures and swaps, options, and forwards. The Metals Equities in which the Fund will invest are the common stock of companies located in both the United States and in foreign countries, including in emerging markets, which are economically tied to the metals because they derive a substantial portion of their revenue from the mining, processing, production, refining, recycling, and other related activities of such metals.
The Fund understands that the extraction, production and distribution of metals required for Electrification are carbon-intensive processes. As such, an important component of the Fund’s sustainable strategy involves purchasing carbon offset investments in an amount equal to the estimated aggregate carbon emissions of the Fund’s holdings. By purchasing carbon offset investments, the Fund seeks to mitigate the carbon-intensive nature of the Fund’s Metals Investments.

Performance
Historical NAV Performance download is not available at this time.
The performance data quoted above represents past performance. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS. Investment return and value of the Fund shares will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance may be lower or higher than performance data quoted.
The Fund's NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Fund's total assets less total liabilities by the number of shares outstanding. Share price returns are based on closing prices for the Fund and do not represent the returns an investor would receive if shares were traded at other times.
Shares of the fund are bought and sold by individual investors at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed by the Fund. Brokerage commissions apply and will reduce returns. Market returns are based upon the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time (when NAV is normally determined for most ETFs), and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times.
S&P GSCI Electric Vehicle Meals Index (SPGEVMUT): The index seeks to measure the performance of the tradeable metals used in the production of an electric vehicle (EV) and is designed to have the flexibility to respond to changes in EV technology and the adoption of new metals futures contracts.
