Our read on PPI

ETF.net Research

In short

CMost allocation ETFs split stocks and bonds. PPI swaps the bond side for hard assets: an actively run basket of energy, materials, industrials, utilities and REITs, aiming at growth measured after inflation. Trading since December 2021.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation in inflation-adjusted terms and normally invests at least 80% of net assets in investments with significant exposure to real assets.

Why people hold it

  • One ticker, one job: at least 80% of net assets in real-asset investments. A company counts only if half its revenue, profits or assets sit in physical things.sec.gov
  • Actively run, not an index sleeve. Astoria builds the equity book around roughly 50 to 60 issuers using growth, momentum, quality and value screens.streetinsider.com
  • Real assets here stretch past commodity miners and drillers to global REITs and inflation-linked Treasuries, so the hedge is not one trade in a trench coat.streetinsider.com
  • 0.57% all-in, with no fee waiver doing the work, which lands near the median for its allocation peer group. Distributions land quarterly.

Worth knowing

  • Non-diversified by charter, and the book clusters in energy, materials, industrials, utilities and real estate, so it moves with commodity and resource cycles.sec.govstreetinsider.com
  • Thinly traded next to the giants in its category, so limit orders and a glance at the spread earn their keep.
  • Index stock-and-bond allocation funds like AOA and IRTR sit below it on cost. The active real-assets mandate is what the gap buys.
