Ben Phillips, Chief Investment Officer at EventShares, a financial firm that creates ETFs based on political and other events, discusses the company's latest fund focused on the tax reform bill.
For each ETF, EventShares chooses stocks that stand to benefit based on the policies put forth by each party. The tax reform ETF functions the same way. Phillips adds that EventShares has the ability to re-balance the ETF as needed, based on the conversation coming out of Washington.
We talk about how the reform bill will impact indexes as a whole, but Phillips adds that he does not think that investing in specific indices is the way to go. He believes that investors can profit the most off of tax reform through an ETF with carefully curated companies.
