TAGS vs. MFLX ETF Comparison
Comparison of Teucrium Agricultural Fund ETV (TAGS) to First Trust Flexible Municipal High Income ETF (MFLX)
TAGS
Teucrium Agricultural Fund ETV
TAGS Description
The Teucrium Agricultural Fund (NYSE: TAGS) provides investors exposure to four core agricultural commodities, namely, corn, wheat, soybeans, and sugar, without the need for a futures account. TAGS invests directly in shares of the following four Teucrium Funds: Teucrium Corn Fund, Teucrium Soybean Fund, Teucrium Sugar Fund and Teucrium Wheat Fund (the “Underlying Funds”). The Underlying Funds were designed to reduce the effects of backwardation and contango. The investment objective of the Fund is to have the daily changes in percentage terms of the Shares’ NAV reflect the daily changes in percentage terms of a weighted average (the “Underlying Fund Average”) of the NAVs per share of the Underlying Funds. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal market conditions in the publicly-traded shares of each Underlying Fund so that the Underlying Fund Average will have a weighting of 25% to each Underlying Fund, and the Fund’s assets will be rebalanced, generally on a daily basis, to maintain the approximate 25% allocation to each Underlying Fund.

MFLX
First Trust Flexible Municipal High Income ETF
MFLX Description
MFLX seeks to provide current income through an actively managed portfolio of US municipal debt securities whose interests are exempted from federal income taxes. The fund spans a wide range of municipal bonds, including lease obligations, general obligation bonds, revenue bonds, notes, cash equivalents, private activity bonds, as well as pre-refunded and escrowed to maturity bonds. The fund is diversified to invest in municipal bonds of any maturity and credit quality. In addition, the fund may invest, without limitation, in municipal securities that pay interest and generate income subject to federal and state alternative minimum tax. Prior to April 14, 2022, the fund traded as the First Trust Municipal CEF Income Opportunity ETF (Ticker: MCEF).
