RSIT — Return Stacked International Stocks & Managed Futures ETF

Strategy

The equity sleeve is implemented primarily through SPDW (SPDR Portfolio Developed World ex-US ETF) plus international equity index futures. The managed-futures sleeve uses a blended replication approach: 30% top-down regression matching against leading CTA funds, 70% bottom-up time-series momentum and breakout signals across equities, rates, FX, and commodities.

For each dollar invested RSIT targets roughly one dollar of international equity notional and one dollar of managed-futures notional. Daily rebalancing keeps both sleeves near target, but futures gains and losses may realize gains frequently, creating an above-average distribution burden relative to equity-only wrappers.

Manager and Issuer Pedigree

Return Stacked® ETFs package ReSolve / Newfound-style capital-efficiency research through Tidal’s ETF platform, with transparent notional sleeves rather than opaque alternatives wrappers.

The complex is smaller than mega-index issuers, but purpose-built around sleeve-level implementation and disclosure. Read holdings and shareholder reports because gross and net exposures can move with volatility targeting and futures conditions.

Outperformance

Outperforms when international equities lead a sustained re-rating, such as EAFE/EM catch-up windows, while managed-futures trends persist across rates, FX, and commodities, delivering non-correlated return on top of equity participation.

Underperforms when fast mean-reversion repeatedly stops out trend signals and international equity performance lags U.S. benchmarks simultaneously, combining a weaker equity sleeve with a whipsawing overlay.
