Harvest ETFs: Navigating Uncertainty with Low-Volatility Strategies
Harvest ETFs: Navigating Uncertainty with Low-Volatility Strategies
Chief Investment Officer Paul Macdonald explains why Canadian investors are looking to low-volatility equity ETFs in today’s climate
BTV’s Cindy Broad sits down with Paul Macdonald, Chief Investment Officer at Harvest ETFs, to discuss how investors are responding to today’s unpredictable market conditions. Despite global tensions and political unrest, Macdonald notes the surprising strength of the U.S. economy and renewed investor focus on stability and resilience.
As markets have become less reactive to geopolitical headlines, sectors linked to growth—especially mega-cap tech—have made a strong comeback. But with volatility still a concern, many investors are looking for more stable options. Macdonald highlights a shift toward low-volatility equity strategies, particularly those rooted in the Canadian market. These strategies emphasize companies with strong cash flow and lower price swings, offering a balance of performance and protection.
Harvest ETFs offers two key options for this approach: the Harvest Canadian Low Volatility Equity ETF (HVOL) and the Harvest Canadian Low Volatility Income ETF. Designed for investors who want exposure to top Canadian names while aiming to reduce volatility, these ETFs reflect Harvest’s broader philosophy—build portfolios that perform, but don’t overreact.
