About Monarch Blue Chips Core Index ETF

MBCC targets blue chips or those established and well-recognized companies with sound fundamentals. To pursue this objective, the fund starts with S&P 500 index of market-cap-weighted US large-cap companies across various industry groups. However, instead of holding all the S&P 500 securities, the fund narrows down its selection using a proprietary rules-based methodology that scores each company based on fundamental data such as revenue, revenue growth, debt ratio, net income, net income growth, and profitability. MBCC typically holds a concentrated portfolio of approximately 24 companies that exhibit the highest fundamental rankings. As a result, a significant portion of the portfolio can be held in one or more sectors. Selected securities are equally-weighted and rebalanced typically the first Monday of each month. Prior to March 4, 2024, the fund traded under the name Monarch Blue Chips Core ETF.
