About this ETF
The Unlimited HFEQ Equity Long/Short ETF (HFEQ) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that aims to replicate the return profiles commonly associated with the hedge fund industry. It specifically targets a volatility level roughly double that of typical market movements. This is achieved by investing in a portfolio of other ETFs, which are then strategically adjusted using futures contracts, swap agreements, and direct holdings in individual stocks.
