The Essential 40 Stock ETF seeks to provide investors a broadly diversified portfolio of U.S. stocks that are essential and vital to the U.S. economy. This distinct, equal-weighted basket of forty stocks is believed to represent the companies that are considered essential to the American way of life. The investment is intended to track, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Essential 40 Stock Index. The Fund is an actively managed ETF that typically invests at least 80% of its net assets in the common stocks of the companies that are part of the Essential 40 Stock Index, which measures the return on an investment in the equity securities of forty U.S. blue-chip companies. Generally, the Advisor expects the Fund to hold all forty securities in the index in proportion to their weighting in the index.
Essential 40 Stock ETF trades on the NASDAQ stock market under the symbol ESN.
As of March 18, 2026, ESN stock price declined to $17.80 with 10,188 million shares trading.
ESN has a beta of 0.72, meaning it tends to be less sensitive to market movements. ESN has a correlation of 0.80 to the broad based SPY ETF.
ESN has a market cap of $223.08 million. This is considered a Small Cap stock.
ESN has underperformed the market in the last year with a return of +16.3%, while SPY returned +18.6%. This shows that you would have done better investing in the overall market (through SPY) over the last year than in ESN shares. However, ESN has outperformed the market in the last 3 month and 2 week periods, returning +4.4% and -2.1%, while SPY returned -0.6% and -2.2%, respectively. This indicates ESN has been having a stronger performance recently.
ESN support price is $17.75 and resistance is $18.10 (based on 1 day standard deviation move). This means that using the most recent 20 day stock volatility and applying a one standard deviation move around the stock's closing price, stastically there is a 67% probability that ESN shares will trade within this expected range on the day.
