About this ETF
The Liberty One Defensive Dividend Growth ETF (EASY) allocates its capital to large-cap American corporations. Its strategy targets enterprises that boast a long history of consistently distributing and increasing their dividend payments, with a particular emphasis on those deemed resilient to economic downturns by the Adviser. Such businesses are characterized by sustained demand for their offerings, even during periods of economic contraction, owing to factors like inelastic demand, recurring revenue models, and significant customer switching costs. They typically exhibit more predictable earnings, consistent cash generation, and reduced sensitivity to broader business cycles. EASY's selection process integrates macroeconomic sector analysis with rigorous individual company evaluations to pinpoint firms possessing robust dividend policies and minimal revenue fluctuation. While the portfolio often favors sectors such as consumer staples, public utilities, pharmaceuticals, and technology, it maintains the agility to modify its sectoral allocations as market conditions shift. Ultimately, by concentrating on companies that have proven their capacity to sustain dividend growth across varying economic environments, the fund aims to deliver both capital appreciation and dependable income streams.

Guided help: AUM is fund size. The expense ratio is the yearly cost baked into returns. NAV is the value of what the fund owns per share; the market price can sit slightly above (premium) or below (discount) it. Total return assumes distributions were reinvested. Every dataset shows its own as-of date because holdings, assets and quotes update on different schedules.
