Roundhill Investments will roll out six exchange-traded funds tied to U.S. election outcomes on May 5, marking the first time prediction market contracts will trade in standard brokerage accounts.

SEC Filing Details Roundhill's 6 Election ETFs

The asset manager filed a post-effective amendment with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday, setting May 5 as the effective date, according to Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart.

The lineup covers Democratic and Republican control of the White House, Senate, and House. The tickers are BLUP, REDP, BLUS, REDS, BLUH, and REDH. Congressional funds reference the Nov. 3, 2026, midterms, while the presidential funds point to the Nov. 7, 2028, race.

Each fund gains exposure through swap agreements on binary contracts traded on Commodity Futures Trading Commission-regulated venues such as Kalshi. The contracts settle at $1 if the targeted outcome occurs and $0 if it does not.

Analysts Weigh ETF Wrapper Impact

Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas earlier remarked that the products would "open up a huge door to all kinds of stuff." Bitwise and GraniteShares filed near-identical six-fund slates in February.

Their structures diverge. Bitwise will terminate its funds shortly after each race, while Roundhill and GraniteShares roll exposure into the next cycle once the market prices a winner above $0.995 for five consecutive sessions.

The push follows the CFTC's February withdrawal of a proposed ban on political event contracts. State regulators in Massachusetts, New York, and Nevada continue to challenge the underlying contracts in court. Polymarket and Kalshi together logged $24.3 billion in volume in March.
