Rebuilt every trading night.\n TUA bid-ask spread and liquidity\n In the year to Jun 30, 2026, 4 of TUA\u2019s 16 authorized participants created or redeemed shares.\n IQ Liquidity Score\n Not scored, 1 of 6 measured.\n A fixed 0 to 100 scale of trading conditions, the same anchors for every fund; 100 is the easiest to trade. It measures how cheaply and reliably the fund can be bought and sold, not whether to own it. How the score is built \n Cost to trade Not measured: the issuer's 30-day median spread is not read for this fund Capacity Not measured: its holdings are bonds, which have no volume source here Price fidelity Not measured: no closing premium is held for this fund Primary market, 65.0 4 active dealers of 16; largest 76% of creations and redemptions, N-CEN to Jun 30, 2026 Bad-day behaviour Not measured: no daily closing premium is held for this fund Depth Not measured: needs trade and quote data (Phase 2) \n Capacity\n Not measured: its holdings are bonds, which have no volume source here.\n Dealers\n 4 active of 16 authorized participants; the largest did 76% of creations and redemptions, in the year to Jun 30, 2026 (Form N-CEN filed Sep 23, 2026).\n The active authorized participants, largest first, by share of the dollars created and redeemed: BofA Securities, Inc. (76.3%), Virtu Americas LLC (12.7%), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (5.8%), Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (5.3%). 12 more were listed and created or redeemed nothing.\n How to trade TUA\n When ETF spreads are usually widest in the first minutes after the open and the last minutes before the close. ETFIQ measures this fund\u2019s own day once it has trade data. Where it trades\n In Q2 2026, odd lots were 4.6% of TUA\u2019s exchange volume.\n Coming with trade data\n Spread through the day, buyers against sellers, an estimate of retail flow, large trades and the closing auction\u2019s share, each once ETFIQ has trade and quote data.\n Questions people ask\n Who is the AP for TUA? TUA\u2019s latest Form N-CEN, for the period ending Jun 30, 2026, lists 16 authorized participants (APs), and 4 created or redeemed shares. The largest were BofA Securities, Inc. (76.3%), Virtu Americas LLC (12.7%), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (5.8%) of the dollars its APs created and redeemed. Who is the LMM for TUA? TUA is on none of the lead market maker (LMM) lists ETFIQ reads, from NYSE Arca, Cboe BZX and Nasdaq. Each list covers only that exchange\u2019s own program, so this does not mean it has no LMM. Sources and dates\n Dealers: Form N-CEN, the year to Jun 30, 2026, accession 0000940400-26-037960.\n Where it trades: SEC MIDAS, Q2 2026.\n Where to next\n TUA fund page ETF trading costs and liquidity Limit orders vs market orders for ETFs Why low volume does not mean illiquid How the IQ Liquidity Score is built Compare TUA with another fund The score measures trading conditions, not the fund.
