Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

QPXFAdvisorShares Q Dynamic Growth ETF

RISNAInspire Capital Appreciation ETF

In short

QPX A one-ticker tactical mix: it owns other ETFs across stocks, bonds, commodities and volatility products, pursuing equity-like growth until implied volatility turns abnormal, then shifting defensive. Actively run, and priced like it.

RISN A tactical blend of U.S. large-cap stocks and U.S. bonds from a values-screening shop, built to chase long-term growth with less turbulence than the large-cap market, at a fee below the typical tactical peer.

Stated mandate

QPX The Fund seeks long-term growth. It actively allocates among ETFs spanning equities, bonds, commodities, volatility products and other asset classes, normally pursuing equity-like returns but moving defensively when implied volatility is abnormal.

RISN The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation with lower volatility than the U.S. large-cap stock market.

Why people hold it

  • QPX Stocks, bonds, commodities and volatility products in a single holding, with a manager free to move the mix instead of sitting in a fixed allocation.advisorshares.com
  • The defense switch is written into the mandate, not the marketing: abnormal implied volatility is the documented cue to move the portfolio defensively.advisorshares.com
  • Trading since December 2020, so there is a multi-year live record to inspect instead of a backtest.advisorshares.com
  • RISN Charges 0.72% a year, under the going rate for tactical multi-asset funds that actively shift their mix.
  • One ticket holds U.S. large-cap equities alongside U.S. fixed income, with the stated aim of long-term appreciation at lower volatility than U.S. large caps.
  • One of the stronger implementations in a crowded tactical multi-asset field, with a live record going back to its 2020 launch.
  • Pays out quarterly, so the bond sleeve shows up as scheduled cash rather than a once-a-year surprise.

Worth knowing

  • QPX The 1.76% annual fee is a heavy lift. Tactical cohort peers such as ENDW (0.22%) and ONOF (0.39%) charge a fraction of it.
  • Small and thinly traded, so spreads can be wide and a big order can move the price. Limit orders are the norm here.
  • No published benchmark to measure it against, so results ride on one team's volatility read rather than a rule you can check yourself.
  • RISN Thinly traded and modest in size, so bid-ask spreads can matter more than the fee does. Limit orders are the standard workaround.
  • Tactical means judgment calls: the allocation can look nothing like a fixed stock/bond blend at any given moment.
  • Cheap for tactical, not cheap outright. Peers such as ENDW (0.22%) and ONOF (0.39%) run at a fraction of the fee.
