Ninepoint Launches SpaceX-Leveraged ETF with Zero-Fee Incentive
Event summary
- Ninepoint Partners LP will launch the Ninepoint SpaceX HighShares ETF (SXHI) on the TSX on June 16, 2026, pending regulatory approval.
- SXHI offers levered exposure to SpaceX’s Class A common stock with a covered call strategy for monthly income.
- The ETF will waive management fees (0%) until September 30, 2026, then charge 0.29% thereafter.
- SXHI will employ up to 33% leverage to enhance income and growth potential.
The big picture
Ninepoint’s launch of SXHI capitalizes on investor interest in SpaceX, a privately held company with limited public exposure. The zero-fee incentive aims to attract early adopters, but the ETF’s success hinges on SpaceX’s performance and Ninepoint’s ability to manage leverage and covered call strategies effectively. This move aligns with broader trends in alternative investment strategies, particularly those targeting high-growth, high-risk sectors.
