RAAX: Gold, Energy And Materials In One Fund
RAAX aims for long-term total returns by investing in real assets through an "ETF of ETFs" structure, with major allocations to energy (45%), gold (25%), and a blend (30%). The fund has performed well during the recent inflationary environment, achieving a +37% total return since early 2022. Despite its performance, the analysis suggests RAAX's complex structure and 0.75% expense ratio may be a drawback.

The RAAX ETF: An Inflation Hedge For Portfolios
Inflation remains a significant concern in May 2025 due to the Trump administration's trade policies and tariffs, despite recent declines in inflationary pressures. The VanEck Real Assets ETF is positioned to benefit from rising inflation, holding assets in energy, real estate, and other sectors that thrive in inflationary environments. RAAX has shown a bullish trend since the 2020 pandemic low, with a recent recovery above $30 following the "Liberation Day" tariff-induced correction.

RAAX: Counterintuitively, Disinflation May Be Bullish For Real Assets Into 2024
The VanEck Inflation Allocation ETF is an actively managed ETF of ETFs targeting exposure to real assets. The strategy has outperformed a peer group of commodity focused or inflation hedging equity ETFs in 2023. We believe RAAX should benefit from easing inflation and declining interest rates as supportive to the demand for commodities including gold into 2024.
