Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

REITCALPS Active REIT ETF

TMEDAT. Rowe Price Health Care ETF

In short

REIT Real estate, hand-picked. About 30 US REITs chosen name by name instead of a whole-sector scoop, aiming for total return from dividends plus price appreciation. Concentrated on purpose, and it pays quarterly.

TMED No data

Stated mandate

REIT The fund seeks total return from dividends and capital appreciation by investing at least 80% of net assets in publicly traded REIT equity securities, primarily US REITs.

TMED No data

Why people hold it

  • REIT Stock picking, not a sector scoop: roughly 30 REITs, each one a deliberate call that carries real weight in the portfolio.
  • The mandate is narrow by design: at least 80% of net assets in publicly traded REIT equity, primarily US names. Real estate, not a fund that dabbles in it.alpsfunds.com
  • Two ways to get paid are written into the objective: dividend income and capital appreciation. Distributions arrive on a quarterly schedule.
  • Holds its own in the upper half of a crowded active US equity peer group, which is not nothing for a niche sector fund.

TMED No data

Worth knowing

  • REIT Active management costs money: 0.68% a year, a shade above the typical active US equity ETF and multiples of broad low-cost peers like DFAU (0.12%) and AVLC (0.15%).
  • Small fund, thin trading. Spreads can widen, especially in fast markets, and limit orders are the usual workaround.
  • One sector, about 30 names, launched in 2021: no cushion from the rest of the market, and a short history to judge the manager by.
