CMDT

PIMCO Commodity Strategy Active Exchange-Traded Fund

CMDT Description

CMDT aims for total return in excess of a diversified commodity benchmark by actively managing both commodity exposure and the funds collateral. The fund primarily gains exposure through commodity swaps and futures but may also directly invest in commodities and use other commodity-linked derivatives. The fund adviser determines target allocations using proprietary quantitative models that incorporate multi-factors such as historic performance trends and storage costs. Positions established may be long, short, or no positions in the specific commodities suggested by the models. Weighting is at the discretion of the fund adviser. The fund also holds a short-duration of investment grade fixed-income securities to serve as collateral. CMDT obtains its exposure via a Cayman Islands subsidiary, thus avoiding a K-1 form to investors. The fund has a longer investment horizon, not short-term, tactical trading. Investments and returns may be different from the advisers other funds
