DFICADimensional International Core Equity 2 ETF

DUKXDOcean Park International ETF

In short

DFIC No data

DUKX Most international funds ride out every drawdown. DUKX doesn't try to: it's a trend-following wrapper that rotates among international equity ETFs showing uptrends and can retreat to cash equivalents when they aren't.

Stated mandate

DFIC No data

DUKX The Fund seeks total return while limiting downside exposure. It actively allocates among unaffiliated international equity ETFs and cash equivalents.

Why people hold it

DFIC No data

DUKX The sell rule is the product. A proprietary trailing stop discipline aims to limit drawdowns, and the fund can sit in cash equivalents when international ETFs stop trending up.oceanparkam.com oceanparketfs.com
Index agnostic by design. Its hunting ground spans developed and emerging markets, regions, single countries, styles and factors, instead of one fixed benchmark.oceanparkam.com oceanparketfs.com
Builds the portfolio from unaffiliated ETFs, so the exposure comes from third-party building blocks rather than a house-brand fund stuffed with its own products.

Worth knowing

DFIC No data

DUKX Cost is the sticking point: 1.03% against a category median near 0.60%, with the underlying ETFs' own fees on top. It's why the fund lands in the bottom quartile of its peer group.oceanparketfs.com
A small, thinly traded fund. Spreads and order handling matter more here than with the index heavyweights that dominate the category, such as AVDE and DFIC.
Trend rules cut both ways: selling into downtrends can leave a strategy out of position when markets snap back. The live record starts at the July 2024 launch.oceanparketfs.com
