About this ETF
This fund is constructed to replicate the returns of its target index, providing investors with an opportunity to engage in a worldwide merger arbitrage strategy. The core objective of both the index and the fund is to achieve steady, positive growth regardless of market fluctuations; however, there is no certainty that this goal will be met. Additionally, this fund is categorized as non-diversified.

Latest News for MRGR
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.
