New Canadian ETFs, June 2026: all 28 launches and what's worth knowing
Short answer: June 2026 brought 28 new ETF listings to Canadian exchanges, and one story towered over the rest: SpaceX went public on June 12, and the leveraged and income funds built around it went live within days. Beyond that, the month delivered a new all-in-one portfolio ladder from National Bank, leveraged “enhanced” dividend funds from RBC, Canada’s first bitcoin 0DTE income fund, and a pair of genuinely cheap active bond funds from CIBC. Here’s the full list by issuer, with honest notes on what deserves a second look.
The June rule is the same as the May rule: a new fund launching is not a signal that your portfolio is missing something. Most of these are niche products or ETF versions of existing mutual funds. But a few are worth understanding, and one theme, leverage quietly showing up in ordinary-looking wrappers, is worth noticing.
This is not financial advice, and it’s a snapshot. Fund details, fees, and yields change, so always check current disclosures before deciding anything.
The ones actually worth understanding
- The SpaceX wave went live. After the June 12 IPO (NASDAQ: SPCX), Harvest’s SPXE and Ninepoint’s SXHI income funds listed, and LongPoint added ORBU, a 2X daily SpaceX fund. The SpaceX ETF Canada hub compares every route.
- CIBC’s cheap active bond funds. CCBA opens a $7 billion core bond fund at 0.20%, and CSTB a $1.6 billion short-term fund at 0.17%. Boring, useful, and priced like index funds.
- NBI’s all-in-one ladder. Four portfolios from conservative to all-equity at 0.35%: NCNS, NBLD, NGRW, NEQT. Sensible wrappers, priced above the Vanguard and iShares incumbents.
- Canada’s first bitcoin 0DTE income fund. Hamilton’s BDAY writes same-day options around bitcoin exposure with modest leverage. Genuinely novel, genuinely high risk.
Desjardins
One passive bond fund early in the month, then three active mandates at month end.

RBC (leveraged “Enhanced” funds)
Three ETF series of alternative mutual funds that add roughly 25% borrowing to established RBC strategies. The word “Enhanced” here means leverage, which is worth reading twice when it sits next to the word “dividend.”

| RUDL | Enhanced Quant U.S. Dividend Leaders, 0.65% | RUDL explained |
| RNVL | Enhanced North American Value, 1.00% | RNVL explained |
CIBC
Two ETF classes of large, established bond funds. Technically these listed May 28, but most launch roundups group them with June, and they are too useful to skip.
| Ticker | Fund | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| CSTB | Short-Term Income Fund, 0.17% | CSTB explained |
| CCBA | Canadian Bond Fund, 0.20% | CCBA explained |
National Bank (NBI)
Four all-in-one ETF portfolios and a thematic rotation fund, all listed June 23.

The SpaceX funds
SpaceX priced the largest IPO in history on June 12, and the Canadian products followed within days. Harvest and Ninepoint wrap SpaceX in covered-call income strategies; LongPoint doubles its daily move.
| Ticker | Fund | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| SPXE | Harvest SpaceX Enhanced High Income Shares, 0.40% | SPXE explained |
| SXHI | Ninepoint SpaceX HighShares, 0% fee at launch | SXHI explained |
| ORBU | SavvyLong (2X) SpaceX, 1.55% | ORBU explained |
LongPoint (SavvyLong)
Besides ORBU, two more double-leveraged single-stock funds, daily-reset trading tools, not investments.
| Ticker | Fund | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| AMDU | SavvyLong (2X) AMD, 1.55% | AMDU explained |
| MUU | SavvyLong (2X) Micron, 1.55% | MUU explained |
Guardian Capital
ETF series of Guardian’s AI-assisted “i3” dividend growth strategies.
| Ticker | Fund | Guide |

| ZMPI | BMO Market+ International Equity (systematic), 0.25% | ZMPI explained |
| BDAY | Hamilton Enhanced Bitcoin DayMAX (0DTE options), 0.85% | BDAY explained |
Bottom line
June’s launch list splits cleanly. There’s real utility in the quiet corners: CIBC’s cheap bond classes, NBI’s ladder for one-ticket investors, BMO’s international fund. There’s spectacle in the loud ones: SpaceX funds, 2X single stocks, bitcoin 0DTE income. The spectacle is more fun to read about, and the utility is more likely to belong in your portfolio. If you want a framework for judging any of them, start with how to pick ETFs in Canada.
Researching a fund is one thing. Seeing how it fits with everything else you own is another. It's the sort of thing we built Greenline for, if that'd ever be useful to you.
