Introducing the Calamos S&P 500 Structured Alt Protection ETF (CPSM) – A New Way to Shield Your Investments
At Extreme Investor Network, we are always on the lookout for innovative investment opportunities that can help our members optimize their portfolios. That’s why we are excited to introduce the Calamos S&P 500 Structured Alt Protection ETF (CPSM), a new ETF designed to shield investors from the risk of market volatility.
The CPSM ETF promises to deliver investors “100% downside protection” against the index’s losses over a one-year outcome period. This means that investors can rest assured knowing that their capital is protected, regardless of market conditions. The fund was developed by Calamos’ head of ETFs, Matt Kaufman, who described it as the “secret sauce” for risk-averse investors.
But how does the CPSM ETF achieve this level of protection? Kaufman explained that the fund enters into three options positions that work together to deliver the upside of the S&P 500 to a cap with 100% capital protection over a 365-day outcome period. This means that investors can participate in the market’s gains while limiting their downside risk.
One key point to note is that in order to receive the full downside protection promised by the CPSM ETF, investors must buy it on the first day of trading. However, Kaufman mentioned that there are still opportunities to buy in on subsequent days, albeit with varying levels of protection.
Moreover, the CPSM ETF is just the first of a suite of 12 structured protection ETFs that Calamos plans to launch in the coming year. Investors can look forward to upcoming funds that aim to protect against losses tied to the Nasdaq 100 and Russell 2000 benchmarks.
As with any investment opportunity, it is important to conduct thorough research and consider your risk tolerance before making any decisions. At Extreme Investor Network, we strive to provide our members with valuable insights and opportunities to help them achieve their financial goals. Stay tuned for more updates on the latest investment trends and strategies.
