| Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE? For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2024, the Fund underperformed its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index. Over the period, the WBI BullBear Value 3000 ETF (“WBI Value”) faced several challenges that influenced its performance. Overall, the Fund’s strategic positioning adjustments and sector allocations played a crucial role in its performance relative to the S&P 500 Index. The Fund’s underperformance was primarily due to its reduced allocation weight in mega-cap growth and technology stocks compared to the S&P 500 Index. Additionally, notable underperformance in the U.S. Communication Services, Consumer Staples, and Industrial Sectors further contributed to the Fund’s lagging returns. On the positive side, the Fund benefited from its positions in the Financials, Consumer Discretionary and Utilities sectors, which provided notable contributions to relative performance. Going forward, we continue to monitor market trends and adjust our allocations to align with evolving market dynamics. |

For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2024, the Fund underperformed its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index. Over the period, the WBI Power Factor High Dividend ETF (“WBI PF High Dividend”) faced several challenges that influenced its performance. Overall, the Fund’s high-yielding dividend paying stocks and sector allocations played a crucial role in its performance relative to the S&P 500 Index. The Funds mandate is to replicate the performance of the Solactive Power Factor High Dividend Index, which allocates to U.S. high-yielding dividend paying stocks with quality fundamental factor. The Fund’s underperformance was primarily due to its reduced allocation weight in mega-cap growth and technology stocks compared to the S&P 500 Index. Notable underperformance in the U.S. Industrials and Health Care was offset by positions in the Financials, Energy, Communication Services, which provided notable contributions to relative performance. Going forward, we continue to monitor market trends and align allocations with the Solactive Power Factor High Dividend Index. |
