ORRDMilitia Long/Short Equity ETF

QAIANYLI Hedge Multi-Strategy Tracker ETF

In short

ORR A hedge-fund-style global long/short equity book in an ETF wrapper, trading since January 2025. The fee is the headline: 10.91%, gross and net alike, with no waiver in place.

QAI The original hedge fund replication ETF, listed in 2009: a fund of roughly 50 exchange-traded products tracking an index built to mimic hedge fund styles, for 0.81% net of a fee waiver (1.03% gross).

Stated mandate

ORR The Fund seeks capital appreciation.

QAI The Fund seeks to track the performance of the IQ Hedge Multi-Strategy Index before fees and expenses. It uses passive indexing and invests primarily in exchange-traded products and related financial instruments representing the index.

Why people hold it

  • ORR Does what most alternatives ETFs only gesture at: an actively run equity long book paired with short exposure, in a fund you can buy and sell on an exchange any trading day.
  • The stated goal is capital appreciation, not yield. It has not been paying out income, so nothing here is built around a distribution schedule.
  • A 2025 launch that already runs a few hundred million dollars and changes hands with moderate regularity.
  • QAI Billed as the first US-listed hedge fund replication ETF when it launched in March 2009, so it carries a record across multiple market cycles rather than a backtest.asiaasset.com
  • Costs 0.81% net of a fee waiver (1.03% gross), below the alternatives category median and under IALT's 0.99%.
  • Plain plumbing for an exotic idea: it holds exchange-traded products and related instruments to passively track the IQ Hedge Multi-Strategy Index, and trades on an exchange all day.
  • Stands near the front of the roughly 30 alternatives funds in its peer group on our review.

Worth knowing

  • ORR Cost is the sticking point: 10.91%, with gross and net the same and no waiver in place, against alternatives peers like FLSP (0.65%) and QALT (0.80%).
  • Active picks plus short positions mean it can move very differently from a plain stock index, in either direction, and by a wide margin.
  • It listed in January 2025, so there is limited history across market environments, and its overall review sits in the lower tier of the alternatives funds we grade.
  • QAI Fund-of-funds design means your exposure runs through other ETFs and the index's mapping of them to hedge fund styles, with gross expenses of 1.03% against the 0.81% net line.
  • Cheaper shelves sit nearby: FLSP at 0.65% and HBDC at 0.39%, though neither runs the same multi-strategy replication mandate.
  • Moderately traded rather than a category volume leader, and payouts arrive annually or semiannually, so this is not an income-cadence vehicle.
