What is PRFD?

Preferred and Capital Securities Active ETF seeks total return, consistent with prudent investment management, with a secondary objective of income generation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of preferred securities and "Capital Securities." "Capital Securities" include securities issued by U.S. and non-U.S. financial institutions (including, but not limited to, banks and insurance companies) that can be used to satisfy their regulatory capital requirements. Preferred securities and "Capital Securities" may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts, or swap agreements. The "total return" sought by the Fund consists of income earned on the Fund's investments, plus capital appreciation, if any, which generally arises from decreases in interest rates, foreign currency appreciation, or improving credit fundamentals for a particular market sector or security.

What is ETF correlation?

Correlation is a measure of the strength of the relationship between two ETFs. It quantifies the degree to which prices of the two ETFs typically move together.

Here, correlation is measured over the past year with the Pearson correlation coefficient (Pearon’s r), which ranges from -1 to 1.
