The
Invesco S&P Spin-Off ETF (CSD) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks

The CSD
ETF has a relatively low expense ratio of 0.62%, which is lower than
the average expense ratio of actively managed mutual funds. It is also

Investing in CSD can provide investors with exposure to a unique
segment of the U.S. equity market that has the potential to outperform
the broader market. Spin-offs can often benefit from improved
management focus and greater flexibility, as well as the potential for
enhanced earnings growth and shareholder value creation. However, as
with all investments, there are risks associated with investing in
spin-offs, including volatility and liquidity risks, as well as risks
related to the performance of the underlying companies. As such,
investors should carefully consider their investment objectives and
risk tolerance before investing in CSD or any
