XBUY in Focus

This ETF seeks investment results that generally correspond (before fees and expenses) to the price performance of the EQM International Ecommerce Index. It has AUM of $10.2 million and charges 69 basis points in annual fees.

Why the Move?

The coronavirus outbreak continues to aggravate in the United States and globally. In order to contain the spread of the virus, governments across the globe are once again shutting down economic activities and imposing social-distancing measures. In the current scenario, consumers are opting for online retailers to purchase food items and other goods. This is driving orders for online retailers like Amazon, making funds like XBUY an attractive investment option.
