Saba Closed-End Funds ETF · Exchange Listed Funds Trust

74 holdings

This fund holds short positions, so exposure is counted gross — long and short both count as exposure rather than netting off, and the weights below therefore sum to 106% of net assets rather than 100%. Shares of the portfolio are shown as shares of that gross exposure.

UNVERIFIED None of this fund's 74 holdings are companies in our screened equity universe. Our look-through screens equities, so it does not apply to a fund holding bonds, sukuk or other instruments — this is not a gap in our data about the fund.

Largest holdings: BLACKROCK SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY TERM TRUST, BBH SWEEP VEHICLE, ASA GOLD AND PRECIOUS METALS LTD, VIRTUS DIVIDEND, INTEREST & PREMIUM STRATEGY FUND, VANECK ETF TRUST.

74 holdings, 0 matched (0% of weight). Portfolio as of 2026-05-31, filed 2026-07-28. Source: SEC Form N-PORT.

Price Forecast

The range is measured volatility (ATR over the horizon), not a target — a wider band means a more volatile asset, not a stronger view. The direction is the indicator tally below. Every forecast is recorded when made and scored against the real price when it comes due, including the wrong ones. Not a recommendation, and not a fatwa.

Before you act on this

The questions worth asking about any verdict on this page, answered plainly.

Is a fund screened on its name?

No. HTR reads the fund's filed holdings and screens each one, then reports the result by weight. A fund marketed as Islamic still gets the same look-through as any other.

What does unrated weight mean?

It is the share of the fund whose holdings HTR cannot cover far enough to rate. It is reported as unrated rather than counted as compliant, because a holding nobody screened should not look like one that passed.

Does the issuer's board make it compliant?

It matters, and it is noted, but it does not replace the look-through. The board's judgement and the holdings screen are shown separately so you can see when they agree and when they do not.

How often is this re-screened?

When the fund files new holdings, and on a rolling basis besides. The date on the verdict above is the last time this fund was actually recomputed.

Open research, not a fatwa. HTR applies published screening standards to filings and publishes what they say, including when they disagree. Nothing here is financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell. Verdicts can change when new filings land.

Compare with

Same screen, different answers. Comparison is where the standards disagreeing becomes useful rather than confusing.

Insider Activity (90d)

Insider transactions reported in the last ninety days. Insiders sell for reasons that have nothing to do with a view, so a sale on its own is not a signal.
