Our read on GAMR
CNot just the studios. GAMR runs across the whole video game chain, from publishers and mobile titles to GPUs, headsets and controllers, listed anywhere in the world, and has been doing it since 2016.
Seeks returns that generally track the VettaFi Video Game Leaders Index before fees and expenses. It provides exposure to global companies across the video-game value chain, including development, publishing, mobile and online games, GPUs, software, hardware, peripherals, and the metaverse.
Why people hold it
- Whole value chain in one ticker: development, publishing, mobile and online games, GPUs, software, hardware, peripherals and the metaverse.amplifyetfs.com
- Global by mandate, so game makers listed outside the US are in scope rather than an afterthought.amplifyetfs.com
- Rules-based: it tracks the VettaFi Video Game Leaders Index, so the lineup follows a published methodology instead of a manager's hunch.amplifyetfs.com
- Trading since March 2016, so its record spans more than one gaming cycle.
Worth knowing
- 0.59% a year, above the gaming-ETF median and above HERO at 0.50% and ESPO at 0.55%.
- A small fund that trades thinly, so limit orders and a glance at the spread carry more weight here than with the category's larger names.
- One theme, and a hit-driven one: publishers, chip designers and hardware makers can swing together. Cash comes back once or twice a year at most, not monthly.
