HGERCHarbor Commodity All-Weather Strategy ETF (HGER)

In short

COMB The cheapest ticket in the K-1-free commodity aisle: 0.25% for a broad basket of energy, metals, grain and livestock futures, wrapped so your tax packet is a Form 1099 instead of a Schedule K-1.

HGER Most commodity indexes weight by what the world digs up. HGER tracks a Quantix index that weights by what actually moves US inflation, with a gold sleeve that expands or shrinks depending on which kind of inflation shows up.

Stated mandate

COMB The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation mainly through exposure to commodity futures markets.

HGER The Fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the Quantix Commodity Index.

Why people hold it

  • COMB At 0.25%, the lowest fee among the category's top-scoring broad commodity funds (BCI 0.26%, CERY 0.28%, CMDY 0.29%, BCD 0.30%) and below the category median.
  • Gains its futures exposure through a wholly owned Cayman subsidiary, so the fund is designed to be taxed like a conventional fund and issue a 1099, not a K-1.sec.gov
  • Benchmarked to the Bloomberg Commodity Index: about 30 positions across energy, metals, agriculture and livestock, with index rules capping any commodity group at 33%.bbhub.io
  • Live since 2017, long enough to have run through a full commodity boom and bust, and it sits in the top quartile of its peer group.
  • HGER The index screens commodities on their sensitivity to US inflation and on the cost of rolling futures, so roll drag is part of the selection math, not an afterthought.usnews.com
  • Gold is not a fixed slice here. The methodology lets it carry a far larger weight ceiling than any other commodity when inflation looks monetary rather than supply-driven.tradingview.comharborcapital.com
  • Commodity exposure runs through swaps held in a wholly owned Cayman subsidiary, the plumbing that keeps futures gains off a K-1 at tax time.usnews.comtradingview.com
  • Sits in the upper half of the broad-basket commodity futures group, and it is a multi-billion-dollar fund that trades actively, so getting a fill is rarely the hard part.

Worth knowing

  • COMB Thinly traded next to the category's household names, so spreads can widen. Matters most on bigger orders.
  • Returns ride the futures curve, not spot prices. Rolling contracts forward can add to or subtract from the move in a commodity's headline price.graniteshares.com
  • Actively managed rather than a strict index clone, with Treasury bills as collateral and cash paid out annually or semiannually, not monthly.graniteshares.com
  • HGER The 0.68% expense ratio lands right at the category median, but production-weighted trackers like BCI (0.26%) and CMDY (0.29%) charge roughly a third as much.
  • Concentrated by design: the index runs a minimum of roughly 15 futures and the fund is classified as non-diversified, so one commodity can drive a lot of the ride.usnews.comtradingview.com
  • Launched in 2022 under a different name and a different inflation index, switching to the Quantix index in 2023, so the earliest slice of its record reflects another recipe.tradingview.com
