Our read on ADDS

ETF.net Research

DIndex funds have to buy a stock the day it joins the S&P 500. ADDS is built to own the candidates before that happens and sell into the add: a trade long run by institutional desks, now in an ETF wrapper.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation through active investment primarily in U.S.-listed equity securities identified as likely candidates for near-term inclusion in major U.S. equity indices.

Why people hold it

  1. 01The mechanism is unusually specific: own likely additions to the S&P 500, 400, 600 and Nasdaq-100, then exit at the market-on-close on the day the stock joins its target index.app.hedgeye.com
  2. 02By rule it never holds a current S&P 500 member, so it is not a large-cap fund in disguise. Roughly 40 names, a 20% per-name cap, monthly rebalance cycle.app.hedgeye.com
  3. 03Holdings are picked on inclusion probability rather than sector or factor views, so the portfolio looks nothing like a typical active US equity fund.app.hedgeye.com
  4. 04Run by a portfolio manager whose career is in index-event trading, including buy-side roles and heading ETF trading for the Americas at a global bank.app.hedgeye.com

Worth knowing

  1. 01Brand new: launched in 2026 by a newly formed adviser with no prior ETF experience, a risk Hedgeye flags in its own materials.app.hedgeye.com
  2. 02The 0.70% fee matches the active US equity median, but broad active core funds like DFAU (0.12%) and AVLC (0.15%) charge a small fraction of it.
  3. 03A small, lightly traded fund concentrated in roughly 40 positions, so single-stock moves land hard and the spread deserves a look before you trade.app.hedgeye.com
