According to WisdomTree, WDTI is an actively managed ETF which employs a quantitative, rules-based strategy designed to provide returns that correspond to the performance of the Diversified Trends Indicator.

WDTI is listed on the NYSE Arca with an expense ratio of 0.95%.

WisdomTree’s new ETF, WDTI, is designed to provide returns that correspond to the performance of the DTI Index.

WisdomTree said that WDTI seeks to provide: diversification through uncorrelated asset mix and a long/short strategy; potential to profit from rising and falling markets; potential to perform in inflationary and deflationary environments; and exposure to commodities which are currently enjoying strong global demand.

WisdomTree president and COO Bruce Lavine said WisdomTree is very excited to bring the first managed futures strategy ETF to the marketplace. Managed futures has been an increasingly important asset class as investors look for less correlated assets that can profit in many different market environments.

"We believe WisdomTree is adding substantial investor benefits by utilizing the ETF structure which provides full transparency of holdings, liquidity and relatively low cost – without the various limitations generally associated with traditional product structures such as sales loads, minimum investments and K-1 statements," Lavine said.
