KCCADKraneShares California Carbon Allowance Strategy ETF

SOYBBTeucrium Soybean Fund

In short

KCCA Most commodity funds ride weather and geology. KCCA tracks futures on California carbon allowances, a market where supply is set by state regulators and the auction floor price ratchets up 5% plus inflation every year.

SOYB Soybeans, straight up. Since 2011 SOYB has tracked a benchmark of soybean futures for future delivery, wrapped so you can buy the bean in an ordinary brokerage account, and it charges less than the typical commodity futures fund.

Stated mandate

KCCA KCCA provides targeted exposure to California Carbon Allowances through the cap-and-invest market and is benchmarked to an index tracking actively traded CCA futures.

SOYB SOYB seeks to track daily changes in the soybean market for future delivery through its benchmark.

Why people hold it

  • KCCA A pure play, not a blend: the fund is benchmarked to an index of the most traded California carbon allowance futures, giving you one compliance market rather than a mixed commodity basket.kraneshares.comsec.gov
  • The supply side is written into regulation. California's allowance cap declines over time toward the state's 2045 carbon-neutrality goal, and the program's auction floor price rises 5% plus CPI each year.sec.govcongress.gov
  • Running since 2021 and part of a dedicated KraneShares carbon lineup spanning global, European, California and Eastern US programs. The California sleeve is a deliberate slice, not a one-off launch.sec.gov
  • SOYB Fee of 0.63% a year sits under the 0.81% median for commodity futures funds, and under diversified rival PDBC at 0.74%.
  • A single-crop play, not a commodity grab bag: the fund follows the Teucrium Soybean Index, which tracks daily moves in soybean futures.
  • Trading since 2011, a long run for a one-commodity fund, and one of the stronger implementations in its commodity futures peer group.

Worth knowing

  • KCCA The 0.95% fee sits above the typical futures-based commodity fund, where diversified baskets like PDBC (0.74%) and DBB (0.81%) charge less. Specialist access carries a specialist price.
  • One market, one rule-maker. Pricing turns on California regulators, auction outcomes and legislation, so this reacts to Sacramento policy news rather than global commodity cycles.congress.govsec.gov
  • Thinly traded next to the big commodity ETFs, so spreads and order size deserve a look. It also holds futures through a Cayman subsidiary and is regulated as a commodity pool.kraneshares.com
  • SOYB One crop, one price. Weather, harvest cycles and export demand move soybean futures hard, and there is nothing else in the portfolio to soften it.
  • It is a commodity pool, not a standard 1940 Act fund, so the tax paperwork differs from a stock ETF. Check how that lands on your return.
  • Mid-sized asset base and moderate turnover mean bid-ask spreads can run wider than on the giant index funds, and the payoff comes from price moves, not income.
