IndexUniverse.com – The New York-based ETF provider today filed papers with the Securities & Exchange Commission for three actively managed ETFs: the WisdomTree Real Return Fund, the WisdomTree Managed Futures Fund and the WisdomTree Long-Short Fund.
The Long-Short fund will pair positions in WisdomTree’s own dividend and profits-weighted ETFs against positions in comparable cap-weighted ETFs. The filing notes that WisdomTree’s fundamentally weighted ETFs “have the potential to outperform” traditional cap-weighted indexes, and this fund aims to capitalize on that potential. The Long-Short fund will be market neutral, holding equal long and short positions, aiming to deliver consistent returns regardless of market direction.
