- Trend Aggregation U.S. ETF (TAEQ) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks capital appreciation by investing under normal conditions in equity securities of U.S.-listed companies across all market capitalizations and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) primarily focused on U.S. equity securities; the adviser's proprietary models may also allocate to ETFs investing in treasury bonds, volatility products, exchange-traded notes (ETNs), and leveraged or inverse ETFs. The fund's portfolio typically features diversified holdings across sectors such as information technology, industrials, health care, financials, energy, consumer staples, and real estate, with approximately 75 holdings and the top 10 comprising around 15% of assets; notable positions have included stocks like Moderna Inc., Lam Research Corp., Roblox Corp., and Bio-Techne Corp., alongside sector allocations reflecting a blend of large-, mid-, and smaller-cap exposure. TAEQ, part of the Collaborative Investment Series Trust, was launched on May 8, 2020, and is advised by Tuttle Capital Management, LLC, with administrative and custodial services provided by Citi Fund Services Ohio, Inc. and Citibank, N.A., respectively; the fund trades on the BATS exchange with assets under management of approximately $3.37 million and a net expense ratio of 1.70%. Headquartered through its trust structure in Reno, Nevada, at 500 Damonte Ranch Parkway, the ETF targets investors seeking aggressive U.S. equity exposure via trend-following strategies within the broad equity and asset allocation segments. Recent portfolio adjustments as of mid-2021 SEC filings reflect strategic shifts, including new positions in high-growth names like Moderna, Lam Research, and Roblox, alongside significant reductions or exits from prior holdings such as iShares Core S&P 500 ETF, Keurig Dr. Pepper, Johnson & Johnson, and various mega-cap tech stocks including Microsoft and Amazon, indicating a tactical reorientation toward select growth-oriented U.S. equities. No major acquisitions, partnerships, funding rounds, or product launches have been reported for the ETF or its sponsor in the last 1-2 years.
