Our read on DBA
COne of the original broad agriculture funds, running since 2007: a futures basket tracking the DBIQ Diversified Agriculture index instead of a bet on one crop, wrapped in a commodity pool that sends a K-1.
The fund seeks to track positive or negative changes in the DBIQ Diversified Agriculture Index Excess Return.
Why people hold it
- Launched in 2007, it is among the longest-running broad agriculture futures funds, and it stays actively traded at multi-billion-dollar size in a corner where many funds are thin.
- Diversified by design: it tracks an index of agricultural futures rather than a single crop, unlike concentrated peers such as CORN (corn) and CANE (sugar).invesco.com
- Exposure comes from commodity futures, not farm-sector stocks, so the fund follows crop prices rather than the equity market.invesco.com
Worth knowing
- The 0.90% expense ratio runs above the group median of 0.75%, and Invesco's own no-K-1 agriculture fund, PDBA, carries 0.75%.
- It is a commodity pool partnership, so tax time means a Schedule K-1 rather than a 1099.invesco.com
- The benchmark is an excess-return futures index, not spot crop prices, and any cash payouts come annually or semiannually rather than on a monthly schedule.
