The table below compares the performance and other essential indicators like dividend yield and expense ratio of 20 Long-Short ETFs.

Long-short ETFs are exchange-traded funds that employ a long-short investment strategy, which aims to profit from both rising and falling market conditions. This type of ETF invests in both long positions, where the fund buys securities that it believes will increase in value. Short positions, where the fund sells securities that it believes will decrease in value and aims to profit from the difference.

Long-short ETFs can use different methods to select the securities they invest in, such as fundamental analysis, quantitative analysis, or a combination of both. These ETFs can be more complex than traditional ETFs, and their performance can be more volatile as they are exposed to market risk as well as the risk of using leverage.

They are typically more suitable for experienced investors with a high-risk tolerance and looking for a more active investment strategy. It is important to note that, as these ETFs might use leverage to generate returns, they are considered riskier than traditional ETFs. Therefore, investors should carefully consider the risks before investing.
