The ELEMENTS S&P Commodity Trends Indicator - Total Return ETN (Ticker: LSC) is linked to the S&P Commodity Trends Indicator – Total Return (S&P CTI) which is intended to provide investors with access to a long/short approach to the commodities futures market. It applies a long/short strategy to six commodity sectors comprising sixteen traditional, physical commodity futures contracts. The six sectors are: Energy, Grains, Precious Metals, Industrial Metals, Livestock & Softs. Long/Short position determination: Each sector within the S&P CTI (with the exemption of softs) is set long or short (or for energy flat) on a monthly basis based on price movements over the prior seven months. Long position determination: Long positions are tracked when a sector’s current price input is equal to or greater than an exponential average of the past seven monthly price inputs. Short position determination: Short positions are tracked when a sector’s current price input is less than an exponential average of the past seven monthly price inputs. A flat position is established for the energy sector when a short position is indicated.
