U.S. Global Technology and Aerospace & Defense ETF (WAR US) – Portfolio Construction Methodology
The investment strategy driving the actively managed U.S. Global Technology and Aerospace & Defense ETF targets capital appreciation by concentrating on companies tied to national defense technologies and infrastructure. The portfolio invests at least 80% of net assets in equity securities of technology issuers and aerospace and defense companies that derive the majority of revenues, profits or assets from technology-related industries or defense, security and protection activities, with technology exposure expected to be dominated by semiconductor businesses. It can invest across all market capitalizations in U.S. and foreign issuers, including emerging markets and ADRs, but concentrates more than 25% of assets in aerospace and defense and in semiconductor companies and operates as a non-diversified fund. Security selection relies on quantitative and fundamental research to identify firms expected to benefit from defense-related innovation, with active and potentially frequent trading used to adjust exposures as company fundamentals and industry conditions change.
