EHLS

Even Herd Long Short ETF

EHLS Description EHLS seeks long-term capital appreciation through a momentum-focused strategy that takes both long and short positions in US equity securities. In selecting securities, the fund employs a proprietary algorithm that emphasizes a dynamic, trend-focused analysis, instead of a strictly bottom-up valuation analysis, driven by price movements and other data points based on market trends and stock momentum. The sub-adviser may adjust its proprietary system that is continuously optimized and refined. The fund strategy involves taking long positions in equity securities exhibiting strong upward momentum and short positions in those showing downward momentum. The actively managed fund targets a net equity exposure from 40% to 90% net long, subject to adjustments based on market conditions. The fund aims to maintain 100% long and 10-60% short exposure. Short sales may include entering into swap agreements or the use of leverage.
