Since inception, SPLV has exhibited promising performance, rallying 6.08% versus the S&P 500 up 2.62%.
Year to date, and to be expected since SPLV will tend to “miss some of the upside but protect on the downside” due to its concentration in the lower volatility names in the S&P 500 Index, the fund has lagged the broader market, and is up 1.42% versus the S&P 500 gaining 9.26%.
