The Pacer Swan SOS Flex (July) ETF utilizes FLEX Options to gain precise exposure to this benchmark index, providing investors with an innovative approach to equity investing.
As a non-diversified fund, the Pacer Swan SOS Flex (July) ETF concentrates its investments in FLEX Options linked to a single underlying ETF. This concentrated strategy may lead to significant performance variability based on movements in the S&P 500 Index and changes in options market conditions. Investors should be aware of the potential for high volatility and the impact of specific market events on the funds performance, given its focused approach on a narrow asset class and sophisticated options strategies.
