Short Contango Long Equity
Top Holdings:
Overview
What is the Short Contango Long Equity ETP?
The Short Contango Long Equity Strategy pairs a core long allocation in diversified US equity ETFs with an actively managed short position targeting asset classes — such as VIX, natural gas, and crude oil futures — prone to structural value erosion from contango. By shorting exchange-traded products exposed to rolling futures contracts, the strategy seeks to convert a well-documented market inefficiency into a potential return driver. Short exposure is dynamically adjusted — typically maintained between 20–40% — scaling with prevailing futures curve conditions, while the long equity side provides resilient market participation through quality, low-volatility holdings.
Two Engines, Low Correlation
Contango capture paired with diversified US equity exposure. Two distinct return streams. Better risk-adjusted outcomes through the cycle.
Active Sizing, Not Static Bets
Short exposure scales with opportunity. Leans in when contango is pronounced. Steps aside when conditions shift. Always deliberate.
Harvesting a Structural Edge
Contango erodes the value of long futures holders every day. This strategy is purpose-built to sit on the other side of that trade. Systematic. Repeatable.
