BOXX: Do Not Confuse Cash And Cash-Like Return
Alpha Architect 1-3 Month Box ETF aims to match/exceed 1-3 month U.S. Treasury Bills but carries inherent options market risks. Arbitrage activities may fail during financial distress, making BOXX unreliable as a cash equivalent compared to SPDR T-Bill ETF. BOXX offers tax benefits, but these are minor and do not justify the risks for emergency funds or cash equivalents.

These ETFs are reasonable investments, but investors can do much better than reasonable. Lots of ETFs offer higher yields, returns, and risk-adjusted returns than these larger ETFs, with extra advantages to boot.

BOXX: Understanding The Fund's First Distribution
BOXX ETF offers a unique value proposition by using box spreads for low-risk returns and tax efficiency, similar to short-term treasury ETFs. Despite its tax-deferred design, BOXX paid a distribution, introducing a minimal tax liability but diminishing its value proposition. BOXX's expense ratio is higher than other options, but a current fee waiver reduces costs temporarily.

BOXX: Cash-Alternative ETF, 5.6% Options Yield, Risks Abound
BOXX achieves similar returns to t-bills through options. BOXX's investors can generally defer their taxes until a moment of their choosing, paying capital gain rates when they sell. Although the fund is a solid choice, Federal Reserve cuts should significantly decrease returns and after-tax yields in the coming months.
