Our read on CORN
CThe original US corn ETF, running since 2010. Rather than riding the front-month contract, it spreads across three CBOT corn futures (second, third, and the following December) to blunt monthly roll churn.
The Fund seeks to give investors price exposure to corn for future delivery by tracking the daily movement of its benchmark. It normally invests in corn futures contracts and cash equivalents.
Why people hold it
- The ladder is the whole idea: 35% second-to-expire, 30% third-to-expire, 35% the following December contract, so it is never glued to the front month.sec.gov
- At 0.61% it undercuts the median fee in its agriculture-futures peer group, and comes in below DBA (0.90%) and PDBA (0.75%).
- Single-crop exposure with no dilution: corn futures and cash equivalents, nothing else, operating continuously since June 2010.sec.gov
Worth knowing
- One crop, one weather map. Drought, planting surprises and export policy land on the whole fund at once, with no basket of other commodities to cushion the move.
- You own corn futures, not corn in a silo. The three-contract ladder softens roll costs but does not remove them, so results can drift from spot corn.sec.gov
- It is structured as a commodity pool rather than a standard stock-ETF wrapper, so the tax and reporting mechanics work differently.teucrium.com
