CAOS: Hedging Against A Crash
Alpha Architect Tail Risk ETF implements three options strategies to provide exposure to stocks and interest rates while expecting to benefit from a market crash. The fund's performance since March 2023 has outpaced short-term bonds and its main competitor, with very low volatility. The track record of CAOS shows it does exactly what it is supposed to do, but it is not a good hedge in a slow market downtrend.
