DBMF: The Essential Alternative Class

As investors move from the traditional 60/40 model to a more diversified 50/30/20 allocation, the 20% in alternatives must deliver what bonds no longer reliably can: true diversification and downside protection. Managed futures stand out as one of the few strategies with consistently negative correlation to both equities and bonds—delivering alpha when it’s needed most. The iMGP DBi Managed Futures Strategy ETF (DBMF) uses a low-cost, index-plus replication approach to access this powerful strategy. With higher alpha, a strong Sortino ratio, and a five-star Morningstar rating, DBMF offers institutional-quality exposure in a liquid, efficient ETF wrapper—making it a compelling addition to any alternatives allocation.
