WisdomTree Launches Two Long/Short ETFs on Texas Stock Exchange

WisdomTree has launched two actively managed ETFs on the Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE), marking its first listings on the venue. The WisdomTree Efficient Long/Short U.S. SmallCap Equity Fund (WSLS) and WisdomTree Global Alpha Fund (WTAL) both charge 0.88%. WSLS combines broad U.S. small-cap equity exposure with a systematic long/short overlay designed to generate additional returns through stock selection. WTAL takes a more market-neutral approach, using derivatives to pursue long and short opportunities across U.S. and international equities, with Treasuries and cash serving as collateral. Both funds use machine learning models developed by Israeli fintech AlphaBeta, in which WisdomTree acquired a minority stake in November 2025. The launches extend WisdomTree's capital-efficient ETF lineup beyond its existing U.S. large-cap long/short strategy, WTLS, introduced in January 2026.
