If you've ever looked at a beaten-down stock or out-of-favor sector and thought "wait, is everyone overreacting here?" then the LOGIQ Contrarian Opportunities ETF (LCO) might be speaking your language. The fund launched January 8th with a straightforward premise: the market gets stuff wrong all the time, and when it does, there's money to be made.

LCO is an active series of Tidal Trust IV, managed by Tidal Investments LLC and co-managed by LOGIQ Capital LLC. It carries a 1.13% expense ratio and sits firmly in the high-conviction camp. This isn't about tracking an index or riding momentum. It's about zagging when everyone else zigs.

The fund aims to deliver total return through both capital appreciation and income by hunting for investments where the prevailing market view conflicts with what the managers believe. Translation: they buy things other investors are actively avoiding. The portfolio typically holds between 30 and 75 positions and can invest across global stocks, corporate bonds, and government debt.

That contrarian angle can show up anywhere. Maybe it's a specific company that got hammered on bad news. Maybe it's an entire sector everyone's dumped because of short-term headlines. Could be a geography that's fallen out of favor, or even an asset class the crowd has abandoned. The managers look for situations where they think pessimism, panic, or herd mentality has created mispricings.

Because LCO is actively managed, the team can shift exposures as market sentiment changes. In a world increasingly packed with thematic, leveraged, and rules-based ETFs, this fund is making a different bet: that consensus thinking is often consensus wrong.
