CORN, as the ticker suggests, is a commodities pool that seeks optimal exposure to the corn futures market. The fund does not aim to provide front-month futures exposure like its benchmark, but instead pursues its objective by holding the second- and third- contracts out, along with the contract expiring the following December. The fund's strategy can work in its favor should corn futures market fall into steep contango. The fund's structure means a K-1 at tax time and a blended tax rate.
