About
This Calamos ETF series is engineered to allow investors to participate in the positive price appreciation of the Nasdaq-100 index. While offering exposure to the index's upward movements, this participation is limited by a predefined return cap. Crucially, it simultaneously provides complete protection against all downside price movements over a one-year investment horizon, prior to the deduction of any fund fees and expenses.
