Re: Guggenheim Defined Portfolios, Series 2449
Floating Rate & Dividend Growth Portfolio,
Series 31
File Nos. 333-282242 and 811-03763
Dear Ms. Dubey:
This letter responds to
the comments given during a telephone conversation with our office regarding the registration statement on Form S-6 for Guggenheim
Defined Portfolios, Series 2449, filed on September 20, 2024, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).
The registration statement proposes to offer the Floating Rate & Dividend Growth Portfolio, Series 31 (the “trust”).
PROSPECTUS
Investment Summary —
Principal Risks
2. The
Commission notes the following disclosure set forth on Page 7 under the Principal Risks section, “Shares of ETFs may trade at a
premium or discount from their net asset value in the secondary market. If the trust has to sell an ETF share when the share is trading
at a discount, the trust will receive a price that is less than the ETF’s net asset value.” Please add to the risk disclosure
to reflect the risk of ETFs trading at a premium to their NAV (e.g., the trust will pay more than the ETFs NAV) or, alternatively, explain
why it would not be appropriate to do so.
Response: In response
to the comment, the referenced disclosure has been revised as follows:
Shares of ETFs may trade
at a premium or discount from their net asset value in the secondary market. If the trust has to sell an ETF share when the share is trading
at a discount, the trust will receive a price that is less than the ETF’s net asset value. Alternatively, if the trust buys
an ETF share when the share is trading at a premium, then the trust will pay a price that is greater than the ETF’s net asset value.
(Emphasis added)
