Our read on ITEQ

ETF.net Research

In short

Broad tech funds hand you Silicon Valley. ITEQ hands you Israel: roughly 60 Israeli tech operating companies, from cybersecurity to defense tech to medical devices, in one ticker. Passive since 2015, and it charges for the specialty.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks to generally correlate with the total return of the BlueStar Israel Global Technology Index before fees and expenses. It uses a passive indexing approach and invests at least 80% of net assets in Israeli technology companies or index constituents.

Why people hold it

  • A wide read on "tech": the index reaches information technology plus biotechnology, clean energy and water technology, and defense technology, not just software names.sec.govamplifyetfs.com
  • Rules over hunches: a float-adjusted market-cap-weighted index, with membership hinging on Israeli companies drawing at least 50% of revenue from a technology industry.amplifyetfs.com
  • Running since November 2015, one of the longest-tenured Israel-focused tech funds, and it stays passive rather than shifting defensive when markets wobble.sec.gov

Worth knowing

  • The niche has a price tag: 0.75% a year, versus a 0.40% median for its broad-tech peer group and 0.09% at VGT or 0.08% at XLK.
  • Concentrated by construction: about 60 stocks tied to one country's tech sector, so Israeli politics, policy and currency move the needle.
  • Thinly traded with a modest asset base next to the mega-cap tech giants, which can translate into wider bid-ask spreads and higher round-trip costs.
