EA Astoria Dynamic Core US Fixed Income ETF

Frequently Asked Questions About AGGA

What does AGGA invest in?

AGGA uses third party ETFs to actively manage core fixed income exposure, based on macroeconomic analysis. Investments may include US Treasuries, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, municipal bonds, and high-yield bonds of any duration. To a lesser extent, the fund may also hold ETFs with non-US fixed income exposure, including emerging markets. The funds advisers utilize proprietary processes influenced by market conditions, interest rates, and credit risks to adjust the portfolio in attempt to outperform broad-based benchmarks. Considering both actively managed and passively managed ETFs, the fund typically holds 5-15 underlying ETFs. Allocations are adjusted when deemed necessary and rebalancing at least monthly. The fund is non-diversified, which means it may concentrate assets in fewer securities.

What is the duration of AGGA?

What is the credit quality of AGGA?

What is the yield to maturity of AGGA?

Yield to maturity (YTM) is the total return you'd earn from AGGA if every bond in the portfolio is held to maturity at the current price. AGGA's YTM is published on the fund's factsheet on the issuer's website — it differs from the trailing-12-month yield because YTM reflects current bond prices rather than historical income paid.
