Our read on SSUS

ETF.net Research

In short

CSector rotation with a brake pedal. Day Hagan runs models co-developed with Ned Davis Research across the S&P 500's sectors, tilting toward the strongest ones and, when its risk model turns cautious, shifting up to half the portfolio into cash and Treasuries.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation and preservation of capital.

Why people hold it

  • The risk model is the whole point: on a low reward-to-risk reading, up to half of assets can move into cash, Treasuries or money funds, then back to equities when the model says major risks have subsided.sec.gov
  • Sector calls, not stock calls. It holds unaffiliated ETFs covering the S&P 500 sectors and overweights or underweights each against the index, with a weak sector cut all the way to zero.sec.gov
  • Live since January 2020 on the same published Day Hagan research framework, and it sits in the upper half of a crowded active US equity field.sec.gov

Worth knowing

  • At 0.76% with no fee waiver, it sits above the category median. Peers measured against the same S&P 500 benchmark include FELC at 0.18% and PQUS at 0.22%.
  • Raising cash cuts both ways: the same mechanism that trims equity exposure can leave the fund underexposed if markets turn back up before the model does.sec.gov
  • Not one of the heavily traded names in its category, and it distributes income only once or twice a year rather than monthly.
