Bushido Capital US Equity ETF
The Bushido Capital US Equity Fund utilizes a systematic, fundamental value approach to individual stock selection that incorporates both quantitative and qualitative analysis.
The Fund seeks to identify and invest in companies with the following characteristics:
- High free cash flow generation relative to the capital employed in the business
- Strong returns on capital over full economic cycles
- Management teams with track records of shareholder friendly capital allocation decisions
- Current market prices trading for less than the portfolio manager’s estimate of the companies’ intrinsic value per share.
Methodology
The sub-advisor screens companies in the Russell 1000 and S&P 500 indices to exclude financial companies and unprofitable firms to identify the starting investment universe. The investment universe is further screened based on profitability, valuation, and capital allocation metrics to winnow the number of potential holdings down to approximately 100. The sub-advisor analyzes the remaining approximately 100 companies further by evaluating their financial statements, event transcripts, and investor presentations.
In addition, a discounted cash flow valuation is performed to quantify the sub-advisor’s estimate of each company’s intrinsic value. The discount/premium to this intrinsic value offered by the prevailing market price coupled with the referenced quantitative screening process is combined with the qualitative analysis of company financial documents to determine the 30-50 holdings that are selected for inclusion in the Fund.
Fund Objective
The Bushido Capital US Equity ETF seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.

nav and market price
*NAV is the sum of all assets less any liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding.
historical performance
month-end performance
quarter-end performance
Performance quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so shares may be worth more or less when redeemed or sold. Current performance may be lower or higher than that quoted.
Market price returns are based upon the closing composite market price and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. Returns are average annualized total returns, except those for periods of less than one year, which are cumulative. YTD is year-to-date and ITD is inception-to-date.
