Alternative etfs

Alternative ETFs sit at an unusual intersection of public-market accessibility and hedge-fund-style investment techniques. They package managed futures, merger arbitrage, and option-based income strategies into exchange-traded products, yet they remain thinly traded and relatively niche compared to mainstream equity or bond ETFs. This combination makes them intriguing: they offer exposure to alternative risk premia, and their limited liquidity raises possibilities to build short-term reversal strategies.
