C000179053 Investment Objective and Strategy

Elements U.S. Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Stone Ridge Trust.

Investment objective

The Elements U.S. Portfolio’s (the “Portfolio”) investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation.

Principal investment strategy

The Portfolio seeks to capture the equity risk premium by investing in a broad and diverse group of securities of U.S. companies. The equity risk premium is positive if investment returns for equity securities exceed the risk-free rate, on average and over time. The risk-free rate is the rate of return that can be earned on high quality, short-term government debt securities. There can be no assurance that the equity risk premium will be positive for the Portfolios investments at any time or on average and over time. The Portfolio is constructed from a market capitalization-weighted portfolio of U.S. operating companies listed on the NYSE, NYSE MKT LLC, Nasdaq Global Market , Nasdaq Capital Market and such other U.S. national securities exchanges deemed appropriate by the Adviser. This market capitalization-weighted portfolio is referred to as the Universe of U.S.

Companies. Market capitalization weighting means that, in general, the higher the relative market capitalization (number of outstanding shares multiplied by the market price per share) of a particular U.S. company, the greater its representation in the Universe of U.S. Companies. The representation of an eligible company in the Universe of U.S. Companies may also be adjusted by the Adviser for free float. Adjustment for free float modifies market capitalization weighting to exclude, in whole or in part, the share capital of a company that is not freely available for trading in the public equity markets, such as, for example, shares held by certain strategic investors (e.g., governments, controlling shareholders and management), treasury shares or shares subject to foreign ownership restrictions.

After determining the Universe of U.S. Companies, the Adviser adjusts the allocation of the Portfolio to increase the Portfolios exposure to companies that exhibit certain properties, generally referred to as factors, that the Adviser believes may contribute to a positive equity risk premium. These factors currently include small size, value, momentum or quality. The Adviser may also adjust the representation of an eligible company in the Portfolio, or exclude a company, after considering such other factors as the Adviser determines to be appropriate from time to time, and may in the future cease to make such adjustments for any or all of small size, value, momentum or quality. Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio invests at least 80% of the value of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities of companies tied economically to the United States, either directly or indirectly (e.g., through derivatives).

See Investment Objectives, Strategies and Risks More Information Regarding Investment Strategies Name Policies below. The Portfolio invests significantly in common stocks, either directly or indirectly, including through derivative instruments such as equity index futures contracts or options on equity index futures contracts, equity swaps or equity index swaps, or equity options or equity index options. The Portfolio also uses derivatives for hedging purposes, to maintain liquidity or to earn an enhanced return. In addition, the Portfolio enters into securities lending transactions and may enter into similar transactions such as reverse repurchase transactions with its portfolio securities to generate additional income. The Portfolio may invest in small companies that are considered mid-cap, small-cap or micro-cap companies.

A portion of the Portfolios assets may be held in cash or cash-equivalent investments, including, but not limited to, money market funds. The Portfolio may also invest in exchange-traded funds or other pooled investment vehicles. The Adviser may consider the tax consequences of the Portfolios investment strategy, but there is no assurance that the Portfolio will be successfully managed in a tax-advantaged manner.
