Market jitters return on fresh U.S.-Iran tensions. Energy, dividend, low-volatility and defensive ETFs could help investors navigate renewed uncertainty.

U.S.-Iran tensions rise as Hormuz risks grow. Markets turn volatile -- dividend, low-beta, and defensive ETFs may help cushion portfolios.

The Core Alternative ETF holds 42 stocks with expected earnings and dividend growth, combined with options for downside protection. Despite outperforming the benchmark over the last 6 months, the historical return of CCOR is disappointing. HELO offers better returns, lower volatility, cheaper fees, and higher liquidity, making it a more compelling choice for downside protection strategies.

For investors seeking momentum, Core Alternative ETF CCOR is probably on the radar. The fund just hit a 52-week high and is up 13.9% from its 52-week low price of $24.69/share.
