CARU vs. NBSM ETF Comparison

Comparison of Bank Of Montreal MAX Auto Industry 3x Leveraged ETN (CARU) to Neuberger Berman Small-Mid Cap ETF (NBSM)
CARU

Bank Of Montreal MAX Auto Industry 3x Leveraged ETN

CARU Description

CARU is an aggressive and bullish one-day bet on the US auto industry. The fund provides 3x daily leveraged exposure to a modified liquidity-weighted index that includes firms engaged in automobile manufacturing, automobile parts and retail, and car dealing. The index defines the industries based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) and selects US-listed equities, excluding ETPs. The fund gains its international exposure through the use of ADRs, but will specifically exclude issuers organized in Canada or China. As a geared product, CARU is designed as a short-term trading tool and not a long-term investment vehicle. Long-term returns could materially differ from those of the index due to daily compounding. Since the fund uses an ETN structure, investors assume the credit risk of the issuer.

NBSM

Neuberger Berman Small-Mid Cap ETF

NBSM Description NBSM focuses on capital growth primarily through investments in small- and mid-cap firms. The fund seeks out undervalued companies with strong market positions and financial health, mainly in domestic markets with a minor proportion in foreign securities. Utilizing a bottom-up analysis, the fund manager identifies organizations they believe are valued below their intrinsic worth. Key considerations include historical returns, market niche, barriers to entry, and self-financing capabilities, emphasizing companies with established business operations over speculative growth prospects. NBSM aims to capitalize on market inefficiencies and manage risks through diversification and fundamental analysis. Furthermore, the manager also takes into account ESG factors into their decision making whenever applicable, aiming for a more comprehensive evaluation of potential investments. The fund may sell a security if it underperforms, reaches a set price or when better investment opportunities arise.
