Our read on COM
BMost broad commodity funds ride the whole basket down through every slump. COM tracks a rules-based index that holds a commodity while its trend holds and steps to cash when it doesn't, one market at a time.
The fund seeks investment results that track the Auspice Broad Commodity Index. The index uses rules-based long-or-cash positioning across commodity futures and seeks to capture upside while mitigating downside risk.
Why people hold it
- The index is long-or-cash by rule across commodity futures, designed to capture upside while limiting downside, rather than staying fully invested through every slide.
- Registered under the 1940 Act, so shareholders get standard fund tax reporting instead of a K-1 partnership form.
- Live since 2017 and sitting in the upper half of a crowded broad-commodity futures peer group, so the trend rules have run through several full commodity cycles.
- Pays distributions quarterly, a cadence set by the fund rather than by whatever commodities did last month.
Worth knowing
- 0.72% a year, above the category median. Always-long index baskets like BCI (0.26%) and BCD (0.30%) charge a fraction of that for plain commodity exposure.
- Trend rules cut both ways: in choppy or sharply reversing markets, a commodity can be sitting in cash while its price snaps back.
- A mid-size, moderately traded fund, so spreads can run wider than at the category's largest names. Limit orders matter more here.
