Why Soybeans Matter

Soybeans are a critical global crop, used in animal feed, cooking oils, wood substitutes, plastics, inks, crayons, and more.[3]

As demand grows across both emerging and developed economies, soybeans remain essential to global agriculture and industry.[4] 

The Teucrium Soybean Fund (SOYB) seeks to offer exposure to soybean futures in a brokerage account, without requiring direct engagement with the futures market.

Example: Outperformed the S&P 500 in all 7 of the last 7 corrections since 2012.

Tangible
Inflation Hedge

Rising global populations and increasing demand for food create structural growth opportunities.


Agricultural ETFs provide exposure to essential commodities like corn, wheat, soybeans, and sugar.

Commodities & Futures Risks: Commodities and futures generally are volatile, and instruments whose underlying investments include commodities and futures are not suitable for all investors. Futures may be affected by:

  • Backwardation: a market condition in which a futures price is lower in the distant delivery months than in the near delivery months. As a result, the fund may benefit because it would be selling more expensive contracts and buying less expensive ones on an ongoing basis.
  • Contango: A condition in which distant delivery prices for futures exceeds spot prices, often due to costs of storing and insuring the underlying commodity. Opposite of backwardation. As a result, the Fund’s total return may be lower than might otherwise be the case because it would be selling less expensive contracts and buying more expensive ones.

Definitions:

  • Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT): A commodity exchange established in 1848 that today trades in both agricultural and financial contracts. The CBOT originally traded only agricultural commodities. Now, the CBOT offers options and futures contracts on a wide range of products including metal, U.S. TBonds and energy.
  • Spot: The futures contract month nearest expiration and delivery month for futures contracts.

The Fund is a commodity pool regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. The Fund, which is an ETP, is not a mutual fund or any other type of investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is not subject to regulation thereunder.

Because the Fund will invest primarily in soybean futures contracts and other derivative instruments based on the price of soybeans, an investment in the Fund will subject the investor to the risks of the soybean market, and this could result in substantial fluctuations in the price of the Fund’s shares. Funds that focus on a single sector generally experience greater volatility.

Futures investing is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. An investor may lose all or substantially all of an investment in the Fund. Investing in commodity interests subject the Fund to the risks of its related industry. Investors may choose to use the Fund as a means of investing indirectly in soybeans, and there are risks involved in such investments.

 

Investors may choose to use the Fund as a vehicle to hedge against the risk of loss, and there are risks involved in such hedging activities. An investment in the Fund is subject to correlation risk. Your return on an investment in the Fund may differ from the return of the Benchmark, changes in the Fund’s NAV and the spot price of soybeans. Therefore, you may not be able to effectively use the Fund to hedge against soybean related losses or to indirectly invest in soybeans. For a complete description of the Fund’s principal investment risks, please refer to the prospectus.

Shares of the Funds Are Not FDIC Insured, May Lose Value, and Have No Bank Guarantee.
