Key Terms

managed futures, drawdown, basis points, correlation

4 terms

managed futures financial

"The fund's managed futures sleeve uses proprietary models to take long and short positions"

Managed futures are investment strategies where professional managers trade futures contracts—agreements to buy or sell commodities, currencies, interest rates or stock indexes at set prices in the future—on behalf of clients. Investors use them to seek returns that move differently from stocks and bonds, like adding a separate engine to a car; this can help spread risk and hedge against downturns, though these strategies can be volatile and carry fees and leverage risks.

drawdown technical

"which may provide a smoother investment journey and lower drawdown without altering"

A drawdown is the percentage decline in the value of an investment or portfolio from its most recent high to its lowest point before it recovers. Investors use drawdowns to measure risk and resilience—like measuring how far a hiker fell from the top of a hill—because larger or longer drops indicate bigger potential losses, influence confidence, and help guide decisions about sizing, diversification, and timing trades.

basis points financial

"JPFP is competitively priced at 59 basis points."

Basis points are a way to measure small changes in interest rates or percentages, where one basis point equals 0.01%. For example, if a loan's interest rate increases by 50 basis points, it's gone up by 0.50%. They help people understand tiny differences in rates that can add up over time, making financial comparisons clearer.

correlation technical

"can offer low to at times negative correlation to equity and fixed income"

Correlation measures how two things move together over time — when one goes up, does the other usually go up, down, or move independently? Think of it like two dancers: they can mirror each other, move opposite, or dance to different rhythms. For investors, correlation helps decide how combining assets changes overall risk and return—low or negative correlation can smooth portfolio swings, while high positive correlation can amplify them.

NEW YORK, May 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- J.P. Morgan Asset Management today announced the launch of the JPMorgan Managed Futures Plus ETF (NYSE: JPFP) on the New York Stock Exchange, expanding the firm's active ETF platform and reinforcing its position as one of the leaders in the global active ETF space¹. The new actively managed multi-asset ETF seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation and diversification beyond traditional stocks and bonds. JPFP is designed to give investors access to both U.S. equities and a managed futures strategy in a single, integrated fund structure.

JPFP can offer low to at times negative correlation to equity and fixed income, which may provide a smoother investment journey and lower drawdown without altering an investor's existing portfolio. The fund's managed futures sleeve uses proprietary models to take long and short positions across global equities, fixed income, currencies and commodities. The U.S. equity sleeve provides broad exposure to large-cap U.S. stocks and may be implemented through a mix of direct equity holdings and/or equity index futures.

"Managed futures have historically shown low correlation to both stocks and bonds, suitable for advisors looking for ways to diversify beyond traditional portfolios," said Travis Spence, Global Head of ETFs, J.P. Morgan Asset Management. "JPFP reflects our commitment to expanding our active ETF offering, giving clients a simple way to incorporate a source of diversification into their portfolios using an ETF wrapper."

Together, the team brings decades of experience designing and applying systematic macro models, and they are supported by quantitative and fundamental researchers with cross-asset expertise.

"JPFP brings an approach we have used extensively in our multi-asset portfolios to individual investors in an ETF," said Dr. Romahi. "It's designed to complement portfolios across market cycles by helping investors maintain equity exposure while adding a managed futures strategy for diversification, especially during periods when traditional asset classes face headwinds."

JPFP is competitively priced at 59 basis points.
