GraniteShares Updates ETF Offerings and Liquidation Plans
GraniteShares has announced a significant change in its ETF lineup, with the planned closure and liquidation of its 1x Short AMD Daily ETF. This decision reflects the company’s ongoing strategy to optimize its product offerings in the competitive market of exchange-traded funds.
Details of the Liquidation Process
The board of GraniteShares ETF Trust approved the liquidation of the ETF on May 9, 2025. The last trading day for the GraniteShares 1x Short AMD Daily ETF on the NASDAQ Stock Market will be June 20, 2025, with creation orders ceasing on June 18, 2025. Investors will have the opportunity to sell their ETF shares until the market closes on the final trading day, after which the ETF will be delisted. Shareholders are expected to receive the final distribution around June 23, 2025.
Implications for Shareholders
As the ETF liquidates its portfolio, it may hold cash and securities inconsistent with its original investment strategies. Once the liquidation is complete, shares will be redeemed for cash at the net asset value, reflecting any costs incurred from shutting down the ETF. Shareholders may experience capital gains or losses on these redemptions. Potential dividends might be distributed prior to the final redemption payments.
