Focused Investment Gains with Index Lasers
Structured notes are a new exchange traded investment option at your disposal. They are bonds at heart, but structure their returns based on the performance of certain benchmarks. This unique investment structure could provide you with an additional measure of diversification for your portfolio.
The Index Lasers note, symbol ICZ, offers a return based on the performance delta of S&P100 and S&P600 over a fixed time period. If the large caps beat the small caps your return will be higher, and if the reverse happens your returns will be lower. Specifically, this note returns 125% of the difference between the S&P100 and the S&P600.
If you are like many market watchers and believe large caps will beat small cap stocks in the near future, this structured note could be your ticket to some low volatility, focused gains.
