Tuttle Capital Management has launched the Tuttle Capital Thematic ETF, which is now trading on the Cboe BZX exchange under the ticker GANZ. The new, actively managed fund uses a multi-tier strategy to target specific supply chain beneficiaries.
Why it matters
Investors often focus on primary theme leaders, but this fund aims to identify opportunities further down the supply chain. This approach introduces a new, actively managed option for those looking to diversify exposure across various market capitalizations.
The Tuttle Capital Thematic ETF (GANZ) carries a total annual operating expense ratio of 0.75%. This figure reflects the cost of professional active management compared to broad market index funds.
