RPAR Risk Parity ETF

RPAR is an actively managed fund-of-funds allocating to four major asset classes: global equities, US Treasurys, commodities and TIPS based on risk parity.

RPAR ETF has delivered almost 7% returns since November, recouping some of its 2022 losses. Revisiting the RPAR ETF's design, I believe its heavy allocation to bonds will cause it to underperform in the coming years. Instead of the RPAR, investors may be able to achieve superior diversified returns using low-cost ETFs.

RPAR: Heavy Allocation To Bonds May Cause Underperformance - Time To Exit

Despite a challenging history with a 35% drawdown by late 2023, RPAR's all-weather strategy offers long-term promise. With improved bond yields and a potential monetary policy pivot, RPAR is poised for 6-7% annual gains moving forward. Historical data supports the benefit of RPAR's deep diversification, suggesting recovery and above-average returns ahead.

RPAR Risk Parity ETF's heavy fixed-income allocations have acted as a headwind, causing the fund to underperform. Looking forward, I worry the fund's allocation strategy may be based on historical data since 2000 that is biased towards bonds. However, I believe there are structural reasons inflation and interest rates will be secularly higher in the coming years, which would prove to be detrimental to RPAR.

RPAR ETF aims to generate positive returns during economic growth, preserve capital during economic contraction, and preserve real rates of return during inflation. Diversification and rebalancing boost are key factors in achieving equity-like returns with less risk. RPAR has underperformed expectations due to the higher correlation of commodity producer stocks with both equities and gold, and poor bond performance.

We took a “bucket list” trip to Africa to see the “Great Migration,” the annual wildlife journey. It prompted several market outlook ideas. I offer views on several ETFs for investors to consider researching including RPAR, UTWO, and NUSI, each embodying the traits of different animals. My bottom-line outlook and view: Today's markets are different. Be proactive, consider multiple scenarios, be ready for each one, and consider the potential for "tail risk events."

The RPAR ETF is a convenient way to access risk-parity strategies. The RPAR ETF's design was flawed, as it had a heavy weight in TIPS bonds that was expected to go up in inflationary environments.

RPAR: Should Likely Perform Well In A Recessionary Environment

Despite having been burned in the past by bullish calls that proved premature at best, I remain optimistic about the Risk Parity ETF. In this article, I run through the math that tells me how RPAR could produce 6% to 7% in annual returns for many years to come.

Risk parity portfolios like the RPAR Risk Parity ETF take a leveraged position in bonds, and this hasn't worked out well this year due to the high inflation. Also, equities suffer from high inflation and higher rates.

Diversified investing has been in the gutter in 2022. I estimate that this year has been the worst for a fund like RPAR since at least 1970. Where there is fear, there can be an opportunity. Macroeconomic fundamentals are far from pristine, but I see a buy-the-dip play here.
