Simplify US Equity PLUS Downside Convexity ETF

$41.68+0.41% vs prior close
364352-WK

Price through Oct 1 · Flows through Sep 30. Figures use the latest available records, not a live quote. Fund details retrieved Oct 1. Holdings snapshot retrieved Oct 1.

The adviser seeks to achieve the fund's investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities of U.S. companies and applying a downside convexity option overlay strategy to the equity investments. Under normal circumstances, it invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of U.S. companies, primarily by purchasing exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"). The downside convexity option overlay consists of purchasing exchange-traded and over the counter ("OTC") put options on the S&P 500 Index or an S&P 500 Index ETF.
