About this ETF
The First Trust Enhanced Stocks, Bonds & Gold ETF is an actively managed exchange-traded fund aimed at generating long-term total returns for its investors. The Fund pursues this objective by primarily investing in a diversified mix of U.S. Treasury securities, liquid cash and cash equivalents, and exchange-traded futures contracts. These futures contracts are strategically used to offer exposure to three distinct asset categories: the S&P 500 Index, intermediate U.S. government bonds, and gold.

No articles mention this fund directly in the last 7 days — showing general ETF coverage.
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.
