Our read on ORR
DA 2007-vintage long/short equity ETF: one actively managed book that can short stocks as well as own them. The cost of admission is the thing to look at first, a 14.19% expense ratio.
The Fund seeks capital appreciation.
Why people hold it
- Long and short in one wrapper. An actively managed equity book that can bet against stocks, not just own them, inside a daily-traded ETF.
- Launched in 2007, so it has been open through the financial crisis and every market since. Not a new idea chasing a trend.
- Trades comfortably for a fund its size, so getting in and out has generally not been the friction point.
- One stated goal, capital appreciation, with no index to hug. That freedom is the whole reason to hire an active manager.
Worth knowing
- Cost is the headline: a 14.19% expense ratio, many multiples of what typical active US equity ETFs charge. That is a hurdle the strategy has to clear every year.
- The portfolio runs concentrated rather than broadly diversified, and with no declared index behind it, results ride on the manager's calls.
- Capital appreciation is the entire mandate. It has not been paying distributions, so there is no income stream attached.
