Q1 Performance Surge
The Harbor Commodity All-Weather Strategy ETF (NYSE:HGER) posted a gain of 24.94% in the first quarter of 2026. This performance marks a sharp breakout for the fund, which centers its investment approach on broad commodities analysis across various sectors. Investors seeking exposure to physical assets have taken note as the fund outpaced broader market benchmarks during the three-month period.
