These innovative ETFs offer investors a unique opportunity to adjust their core equity allocations in alignment with the current economic environment by selecting companies from multiple sectors into a single, cycle-responsive approach. The Mackenzie Defensive Tilt ETF holds companies that tend to perform well during economic slowdowns, while the Mackenzie Cyclical Tilt ETF focuses on companies whose performance is closely tied to the business cycle and tend to be dependent on demand for goods and services.
“By providing these cycle-responsive solutions, we’re helping advisors and investors navigate portfolio sensitivity and economic fluctuations,” said Prerna Mathews, VP, ETF Product and Strategy, Mackenzie Investments. “MDEF and MCYC both complement core equity holdings, enabling investors to remain fully invested while adjusting their portfolio tilt to align with market conditions.”
