About HDCEX
The Rational Equity Armor Fund Class C is an actively managed mutual fund designed to deliver total return to investors, with a strong emphasis on dividend income as a key component of performance. The fund primarily invests in dividend-paying companies included within the S&P 500 Index, focusing on those less sensitive to economic fluctuations to help manage volatility. To further safeguard against market downturns, the fund employs a systematic volatility hedge by investing up to 20% of its assets in futures contracts on the Cboe Volatility Index (VIX), as well as cash and cash equivalents. This unique overlay aims to provide downside protection and lower portfolio risk compared to traditional equity-only strategies. The Rational Equity Armor Fund Class C is suited for investors seeking exposure to large-cap U.S. equities but desiring a dynamic risk management approach through volatility hedging. The fund is managed using a rules-based quantitative strategy that incorporates domestic and international economic indicators, making it relevant for those looking to balance potential growth with effective risk mitigation.
