Summary
RSIT's structural framework employs a return-stacking mechanism whereby investors receive $1 of exposure to large-cap international equities alongside $1 of managed futures systematically for each dollar deployed. The fund's total assets reached $64.28 million with a net asset value of $20.44 per share, reflecting early-stage fund accumulation typical of newly launched alternative vehicles. The portfolio maintains minimal daily trading volume at $13.67 thousand shares, consistent with institutional positioning and limited retail participation.
The fund's holdings reveal a sophisticated multi-asset construction. Core equity exposure concentrates in the State Street SPDR Portfolio Developed World ex-US ETF (SPDW) valued at $49.3 million, providing direct access to developed international markets excluding the United States. Supporting this equity sleeve are multiple international index futures including MSCI EAFE Index futures ($16.8 million), FTSE 100 ($8.5 million), DAX ($2.3 million), and Nikkei/USD ($1.5 million) contracts dated September 26, 2026, creating a diversified developed-market equity exposure framework.
The managed futures sleeve exhibits pronounced directional positioning across fixed income, currencies, and commodities. Most notably, the portfolio maintains substantial short positions in U.S. Treasury futures: 2-Year Treasury Note futures at -$64.6 million, 5-Year Treasury Note futures at -$28.9 million, and 10-Year Treasury Note futures at -$16.1 million, indicating significant bearish duration bias. Currency futures reflect equally concentrated positioning with Japanese Yen futures at -$22.3 million short, Euro FX at -$20.4 million short, and Canadian Dollar futures at -$8.4 million short. Long commodity exposures include Brent crude futures ($805,368) and RBOB gasoline ($1.3 million), partially offset by natural gas futures short positions (-$872,496). The portfolio maintains $121.0 million in cash offset against these derivative positions, providing liquidity management for the managed futures sleeve.
This construction positions RSIT as a systematic global macro vehicle suitable for institutional allocators seeking diversification from traditional equity-bond portfolios while maintaining domestic currency hedges and tactical commodity exposures aligned with systematic trend-following methodologies.
