PDBC Factset Analytics Insight

PDBC offers a quasi-active broad-commodity strategy, delivered in a 1940-Act, plain ETF wrapper. PDBC investors therefore avoid K-1s, mark-to-market capital gains taxes, and counterparty risk, instead relying on the fund's investment in an offshore subsidiary to gain commodity exposure. PDBC's commodity portfolio is nearly identical to that of sibling fund DBC, known for its optimized strategy of selecting futures contracts to mitigate contango. PDBC is actively-managed but it explicitly references DBC's underlying index, which is composed of futures contracts on 14 commodities across the energy, precious metals, industrial metals and agriculture sectors with the aim of outperforming the reverence index.
