The ETF returned 1.96% for the twelve months ended January 31, 2026, compared to the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index return of 6.85%. • The U.S. bond market performed well as yields remained high with only slight cuts to the Federal Funds Rate towards the end of the year. • The Fund seeks capital appreciation in elevated and rising inflationary environments. Inflation slightly cooled throughout the year, which led to the Fund’s modest performance.
