Hey, it’s Matt here.
Wall Street loves to sell you the “balanced” 60/40 playbook.
But have you looked at what the people running the money-printing machines are actually doing?
According to the World Gold Council’s Gold Demand Trends report, central banks bought 863.3 tons of gold last year1.
And I don’t believe they’re buying because they're paranoid…
They’re likely buying because they know the math on sovereign debt better than anyone.
They can see the debasement theme — the systematic dilution of a currency's purchasing power — playing out in real time.
In other words… they know their history: That over time, paper money loses its value as more of it is printed. So they’re hedging against their own policies.
And it’s not just gold that central banks are buying.
The number of countries now holding and/or accumulating Bitcoin is growing, too.
The US holds 328,372 BTC in a “digital Fort Knox”.
El Salvador holds 7,623 BTC and accumulates another whole coin every day.
The UAE holds 6,420 BTC and is aiming to become the Middle East's “digital energy” capital.
And in Europe, the Czech National Bank launched a digital asset test portfolio last year.
There’s speculation that Governor Aleš Michl is pushing for a 5% BTC allocation of the country's €140B reserves2.
This is why I believe it’s important to look at what governments do – over what they say.
Countries all over the world are stacking hard assets — physical and digital.
This is precisely why we launched our BEGS fund — the Rareview 2X Bull Cryptocurrency & Precious Metals ETF.
BEGS (Bitcoin Ether Gold Silver) bundles the physical scarcity of Gold and Silver with the digital scarcity of Bitcoin and Ether.
Important Disclosure: The Fund does not directly hold or invest in Bitcoin, Ethereum, physical gold, or silver. It achieves its exposure through derivatives. As with any leveraged investment, your capital is at risk, and performance over longer periods can differ significantly from the daily objective.
It’s a diversified “Hard Money” core that uses 2X leverage and seeks to stack the returns of both strategies.
Which means that investors can effectively get 100% exposure to these assets with 50% of the capital they would normally need to hold them.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES
Carefully consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risk factors, charges and expenses before investing. This and additional information can be found in the Fund’s full and summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting rareviewcapital.com. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.
Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There can be no assurance that a Fund will achieve its stated objectives. An investment in the Fund may be subject to risks which include, among others, market, interest rate, tax, liquidity, leverage, non-diversified, investment restrictions, operational, authorized participant concentration, no guarantee of active trading market, trading issues, active management, fund shares trading, premium/discount and liquidity of fund shares and concentration risks, all of which may adversely affect the Fund. Diversification does not ensure profits or prevent losses. Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk, and will fluctuate in market value. Unlike mutual funds, ETF shares are not individually redeemable directly with the Fund and are bought and sold on the secondary market at market price, which may be higher or lower than the ETF’s net asset value (NAV). Transactions in shares of ETFs will result in brokerage commissions, which will reduce returns.
The Fund may purchase options on Underlying Funds and enter into futures contracts on bitcoin, ether, gold or silver. The Fund does not invest directly in gold, gold bullion, silver, or silver bullion. The Fund will only seek direct investment exposure to bitcoin and ether through investment in cash-settled futures contracts that trade on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). The Fund does not invest directly in or hold Bitcoin or Ether.
The Fund presents different risk from other funds; the Fund has greater risks than funds that do not use leverage; and the Fund may only be suitable for knowledgeable investors who understand how the Fund operates.
Cryptocurrency Risk. The market for bitcoin and ether futures may be less developed, and potentially less liquid and more volatile, than more established futures markets. While the bitcoin futures market has grown substantially since bitcoin and ether futures commenced trading, there can be no assurance that this growth will continue. Counterparty Risk. Counterparty risk is the risk that a counterparty to a financial instrument held by the Fund or by a special purpose or structured vehicle invested in by the Fund may become insolvent or otherwise fail to perform its obligations, and the Fund may obtain no or limited recovery of its investment, and any recovery may be significantly delayed. Derivatives Risk. Futures and swaps involve risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Futures Risk. The risk of loss in trading commodity interests can be substantial. Please carefully consider whether such trading is suitable in light of your financial condition. Swaps Risk. Swaps are subject to tracking risk because they may not be perfect substitutes for the instruments they are intended to replace. Over the counter swaps are subject to counterparty default. Leverage inherent in swap contracts will tend to magnify the Fund’s losses. Options Risk. There are risks associated with the purchase of call and put options. As the buyer of a put or call option, the Fund risks losing the entire premium invested in the option if the Fund does not exercise the option. Purchased options may decline in value due to changes in price of the underlying security, passage of time and changes in volatility. Precious Metals Risk. The Fund will be sensitive to changes in, and its performance will depend to a greater extent on, the prices of precious metals. These prices may fluctuate substantially over short periods of time, so the Fund’s share price may be more volatile than other types of investments. Management Risk. Each of the Adviser’s and Sub-Adviser’s dependence on its judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of Underlying Funds and derivatives in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and may not produce the desired results.
NOT FDIC INSURED NO BANK GUARANTEE MAY LOSE VALUE
