In a market dominated by broad-based ETFs, investors seeking targeted income, amplified exposure, or innovative strategies often face limited choices. REX Shares focuses on designing specialized ETFs that serve investors and advisors with strong market convictions across income, leverage, crypto, and thematic exposures.
REX Shares offers a targeted suite of ETFs designed for both active traders and long-term investors. The firm’s lineup spans four core categories, each built to address specific portfolio objectives with precision and transparency.
Modern Income Strategies
REX Shares offers three distinct suites of options-based income ETFs, each designed to target different risk profiles and income objectives. Each strategy balances income generation with varying degrees of equity market exposure.
- Core Income: Index Covered Call ETFs – diversified equity exposure with a systematic income overlay.
- FEPI – REX FANG & Innovation Equity Premium Income ETF
- AIPI – REX AI Equity Premium Income ETF
- CEPI – REX Crypto Equity Premium Income ETF
- Enhanced Income: Growth & Income Suite — more tactical equity positioning that seeks to balance income generation with growth potential.
- Aggressive Income: Volatility-driven strategies designed to maximize income through active volatility harvesting.
- ULTI – REX IncomeMax Option Strategy ETF
These options-based ETFs are designed for investors seeking ongoing income potential while maintaining equity exposure. Distributions will vary over time and are not guaranteed, and investors remain subject to equity and options-related risks, including capped upside participation and potential NAV erosion associated with high distribution levels.
Tools for Active Traders
The T-REX™ suite of ETFs is designed specifically for active traders seeking precise, short-term exposure to individual stocks that frequently drive market volatility. The lineup was among the first to provide 2x leveraged and inverse daily exposure to select single stocks, offering traders a way to express high-conviction views around earnings announcements, macro developments, and other market-moving events.
These ETFs are designed for short-term trading and tactical positioning, enabling traders to leverage key market trends without directly using margin or listed options. As with all leveraged products, returns can differ significantly from the performance of the underlying stock over periods longer than a single day due to daily rebalancing and compounding effects.
Targeted Access to Spot Crypto Exposure
REX Shares offers ETFs providing long-term, spot-based exposure to crypto assets via ETP’s and the broader digital asset ecosystem accessible through standard brokerage accounts. Exposure is obtained primarily through spot holdings of digital assets or through equities of companies operating in blockchain, crypto infrastructure, and related digital technologies, rather than relying solely on futures-based strategies.
These ETFs are designed as strategic, long-term allocations for investors seeking participation in the digital economy’s ongoing evolution while understanding the volatility, regulatory considerations, and developing market structure associated with digital assets.
Thematic Strategies
REX Shares also develops ETFs that provide targeted exposure to structural trends and innovation-driven themes, offering investors tools to express high-conviction views beyond traditional sector or broad-market allocations. These strategies are designed to align with long-term narratives shaping the economy – such as drone technology and other emerging growth areas – while maintaining the liquidity, transparency, and trading flexibility of the ETF structure.
These thematic ETFs can serve as satellite positions around core holdings for investors and advisors looking to tilt portfolios toward specific ideas they believe will drive returns over time.
Why REX Shares?
REX Shares is an ETF issuer dedicated to building tools for both tactical traders and strategic investors, offering leveraged and inverse exposures, options-based income strategies, and spot-based digital asset solutions. The firm’s product design emphasizes transparent structures, clearly defined objectives, and daily disclosure of holdings to help investors understand exactly what they own.
The firm offers access to ETFs that seek daily leveraged or inverse exposure to selected stocks, sectors, or indexes, designed for investors who actively trade short-term market moves. These funds enable focused bullish or bearish positioning without directly using margin or listed options, while introducing unique risks, including the effects of daily rebalancing and the potential for amplified gains or losses.
Intended primarily for tactical trading rather than long-term buy-and-hold strategies, these ETFs are generally suited to experienced investors who monitor positions frequently and understand the impact of leverage, compounding, and volatility on returns over periods longer than a day.
REX Shares serves investors and advisors who seek innovative portfolio tools suited for varied time horizons, from short-term trading to long-term thematic and income strategies. To learn more about how these strategies may fit within a portfolio, contact REX Shares or visit rexshares.com.
An investor should carefully consider the Fund’s investment objective, risks, charges, and expenses before investing. The Fund’s prospectus and summary prospectus contain this and other information about the REX Shares. To obtain the Fund’s prospectus and summary prospectus, call 1-844-802-4004. The Fund’s prospectus and summary prospectus should be read carefully before investing.
Investing in the Fund's involves a high degree of risk. As with any investment, there is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment in the Fund's.
Concentration Risk. Each Fund’s assets will be concentrated in the sector or sectors or industry or group of industries that are assigned to the Reference Asset, which will subject a Fund to the risk that economic, political or other conditions that have a negative effect on those sectors and/or industries may negatively impact a Fund to a greater extent than if a Fund’s assets were invested in a wider variety of sectors or industries.
Crypto Asset Risk. The performance of the Reference Asset, and consequently the Fund’s performance, is subject to the risks of the digital assets/cryptocurrency industry. The trading prices of many digital assets, including the Reference Asset, have experienced extreme volatility in recent periods and may continue to do so. Extreme volatility in the future, including further declines in the trading prices of the Reference Asset, could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Fund’s shares (“Shares”) and the Shares could lose all or substantially all of their value. The value of the Shares is subject to a number of factors relating to the fundamental investment characteristics of the Reference Asset as a digital asset, including the fact that digital assets are bearer instruments and loss, theft, destruction, or compromise of the associated private keys could result in permanent loss of the asset, and the capabilities and development of blockchain technologies.
Distribution Risk. As part of the Fund’s investment objectives, the Fund seeks to provide current income. There is no assurance that the Fund will make a distribution at any given time. If the Fund does make distributions, the amounts of such distributions will likely vary greatly from one distribution to the next. Additionally, the distributions, if any, may consist of returns of capital, which would decrease the Fund’s NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment.
Leverage Risk. The Fund obtains investment exposure in excess of its net assets by utilizing leverage and may lose more money in market conditions that are adverse to its investment objective than a fund that does not utilize leverage.
Options Contracts. The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility of the underlying reference security, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and eco nomic events.
