 Since-common inception, Ninepoint Enhanced Canadian HighShares ETF (ECHI) leads the peer group with a 39.16% cumulative total return, followed by Hamilton Enhanced Canadian Equity DayMAX ETF at 31.13%, Harvest Canadian High Income Shares ETF at 29.18%, Global X Enhanced S&P/TSX 60 Covered Call ETF at 26.47%, and Evolve Canadian Equity UltraYield ETF at 21.47%. ECHI's advantage over the second-place strategy is 8.03 percentage points.

Over the YTD period, Hamilton leads at 22.31%, narrowly ahead of ECHI at 21.74%. Harvest follows at 18.57%, Global X at 17.17%, and Evolve at 15.48%.

Over the past month, Harvest leads at +6.22%, followed by ECHI (+4.12%), Global X (+1.89%), Hamilton (+1.20%), and Evolve (+0.38%). Over three months, Hamilton leads at +6.45%, followed by Global X (+5.88%), Harvest (+3.44%), ECHI (+3.27%), and Evolve (+2.83%).

Over the past six months, Hamilton leads at +11.92%, followed closely by Global X (+11.70%), Evolve (+10.26%), ECHI (+10.07%), and Harvest (+5.04%).

The one-year numbers provide the clearest differentiation: ECHI leads at +44.03%, compared with Harvest at +32.57%, Hamilton at +32.39%, and Global X at +27.88%. That puts ECHI 11.46 percentage points ahead of the next-highest one-year result. Evolve does not yet have a one-year figure in the data provided.

Overall, short-term leadership continues to rotate across the peer group, but the longer measurement periods tell a different story. ECHI ranks first over both the one-year period (+44.03%) and the common-start period (+39.16%), while remaining a close second YTD (+21.74%). That combination helps distinguish sustained total-return performance from leadership over any single shorter period.
