May Recap: Autocalls Reset the Ladder, Coupons Hold


The REX Autocallable Income ETF (ATCL) reported a May Distribution of 1.13%, an annualized Distribution Rate of 13.57%, and a 30-Day SEC Yield of 2.81%. For May, ATCL's performance was 1.23%, compared to SPXT's 5.26%. Since inception (2/18 – 5/29/26), ATCL has achieved 3.47% performance, with a Beta to S&P 500 TR of ~0.6, Upside Capture of ~48%, Downside Capture of ~66%, and Annualized Volatility of 9.7% (vs. SPXT's 15.8%). The 30-Day Yield represents net investment income earned by the Fund over the 30-Day period ended 5/31/2026, expressed as an annual percentage rate based on the Fund’s share price at the end of the 30-Day period. The Distribution Rate is the annual rate an investor would receive if the most recently declared distribution, which includes option income, remained the same going forward. Beta measures the sensitivity of a fund’s returns relative to a benchmark index. Upside Capture measures how much of a benchmark’s positive returns a fund participates in during periods when the benchmark rises. Downside Capture measures how much of a benchmark’s negative returns a fund participates in during periods when the benchmark declines.




In May, structured product issuance remained elevated, totaling $18.9B (up 67% YoY), while equity markets, led by the S&P 500 TR Index (5.26% return), continued their recovery. The REX Autocallable Income ETF (ATCL) returned +1.23% in May, with returns increasingly driven by coupon accrual as its weighted average mark-to-market level held near par (96.47%). ATCL maintained its defensive profile with since-inception annualized volatility at 9.7% (vs. S&P 500 TR Index's 15.8%). The market rally led to significant autocall activity, with 30 notes redeemed early and proceeds reinvested into new notes, refreshing coupon barriers. Portfolio positioning remains constructive, with 100% of positions above coupon barriers and a weighted average coupon of 14.24%. ATCL paid its third distribution in May, an annualized 13.57%, with 81.3% estimated as Return of Capital. The coupon is the annualized percentage of the notional amount allocated to an Autocallable Contract at the Observation Dates.
