Our read on CCOR
DAn active fund that pairs a concentrated large-cap stock book with a standing S&P 500 put overlay, aiming for capital appreciation and preservation with low correlation to the broader US equity market.
The Fund seeks capital appreciation and preservation with low correlation to the broader U.S. equity market. It combines a concentrated large-cap long-equity portfolio with S&P 500 put options intended to reduce downside risk and seek positive returns during equity declines.
Why people hold it
- The hedge is structural, not a market call: about 40 large caps carried alongside S&P 500 puts intended to cut downside and seek positive returns when equities fall.
- An unusual mandate inside a dividend-income peer group: low correlation to the US market is the stated goal, not out-running it.
- Running since 2017 as an active strategy, with growth and quality screens on the equity sleeve and quarterly distributions.
Worth knowing
- At 1.29% a year, the fee sits well above the roughly 0.55% median of its dividend-income cohort. The options overlay is what that buys.
- A small, thinly traded fund, so spreads can be wider than at scaled peers like CGDV or TDVG.
- Hedging costs money in calm markets, and the fund discloses that distributions can include return of capital.
