The Dent Tactical ETF
AdvisorShares’ first product, the Dent Tactical ETF (NYSE: DENT), traded over 1 million shares in the first four days of its launch, making it the largest and fastest growing actively managed ETF in existence. Managed by Harry S. Dent, Jr., author and developer of The Dent Method, an economic forecasting approach and Rodney Johnson, President of HS Dent Investment Management, the investment objective of the Dent Tactical ETF is the long term growth of capital. DENT seeks to achieve its investment objective by identifying, through proprietary economic and demographic analysis, the overall trend of the U.S. and global economies and how consumer-spending patterns may change based upon this analysis. Then, the portfolio manager implements an investment strategy using ETFs across several asset classes such as domestic and foreign equities, domestic or foreign fixed income or commodities. The portfolio manager systematically selects some of the strongest performing asset classes and invests in the specific ETFs that gain exposure to the target allocation. The portfolio is monitored daily given market changes, and the portfolio can be reallocated at any time using a sell discipline designed to mitigate risk. An investment in DENT can provide investors with a tactically managed investment vehicle as part of a core strategy or as a complement to a core strategy, while the actively managed ETF structure provides daily transparency of holdings.
