- Return Stacked Bonds & Futures Yield ETF (RSBY), issued by Tidal Trust II, is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks long-term capital appreciation by providing simultaneous exposure to a U.S. bond strategy and a futures yield strategy; for every $1 invested, the fund aims to deliver $1 of exposure to the broad U.S. fixed income market through U.S. Treasury securities, broad-based bond exchange-traded funds such as iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF (AGG), and U.S. Treasury futures contracts including 2-year, 5-year, 10-year note futures, and long bond futures, or combinations thereof, while layering $1 of exposure to a systematic futures yield (carry) strategy that invests long and short across global futures contracts in commodities, currencies, bonds, and equities to harvest roll yield. The bond strategy targets an effective duration approximating that of the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index; the futures yield component employs quantitative processes with daily rebalancing and includes positions such as Euro-Bund futures, British Pound futures, RBOB gasoline futures, and shorts in Canadian Dollar futures, Japanese Yen futures, and FTSE 100 index futures, among others. The fund trades on the Cboe BZX Exchange under the ticker RSBY with CUSIP 88636J352 and an expense ratio of 0.98%; distributions, if any, occur annually at year-end.
Tidal Trust II, headquartered at 234 West Florida Street, Suite 203, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53204, serves as the registrant and oversees the fund through its investment adviser Tidal Financial Group LLC; Newfound Research LLC acts as sub-adviser, and ReSolve Asset Management SEZC (Cayman) provides futures trading advisory services as part of ongoing strategic alliances established at inception. Launched on August 20, 2024, RSBY operates with no geographic restrictions on its futures positions, targeting institutional and retail investors seeking capital-efficient diversification with low historical correlations to traditional stocks and bonds; as of December 2025, net assets stand at approximately $82 million with around 5.2 million shares outstanding.
RSBY represents the latest addition to the Return Stacked family of ETFs, which surpassed $1 billion in assets under management across its suite by November 2025, reflecting rapid growth and investor adoption of the return stacking approach; no major acquisitions, funding rounds, or name changes have occurred since launch, though the broader family's expansion includes related funds like RSSX (U.S. Equities & Gold/Bitcoin) introduced in 2025.
