It focuses on selecting securities exhibiting lower volatility and correlation to the overall market. This distinct approach is intended to improve risk-adjusted returns. The ETF also provides diversification across sectors and industries, which reduces the impact of single stock performance on overall portfolio performance.
Risk Analysis
Volatility

Market Risk
SIXB may be suitable for long-term investors seeking to mitigate downside risk, but it is not ideal for active traders seeking high returns or those following passive index strategies.
Summary
SIXB is a low-beta equity strategy ETF designed to provide long-term capital appreciation with reduced volatility compared to the broader market. It uses a proprietary quantitative methodology for stock selection, which differentiates it from other ETFs. However, its AUM and trading volume are lower than those of its competitors. Investors seeking downside protection and lower volatility exposure may find SIXB suitable, but they should also consider the liquidity and expense ratio.
