Our read on KNCT

ETF.net Research

BA next-gen connectivity theme sitting on an unusually old ticker: KNCT dates to 2005. Today it tracks a global index of roughly 100 connectivity names for 0.40% a year.

Stated mandate

The fund is designed to follow the STOXX World AC NexGen Connectivity Index and normally invests at least 90% of its total assets in common stocks included in that Index.

Why people hold it

  1. 010.40% a year undercuts what global thematic funds typically charge, so less of the theme's upside leaks out as fees.
  2. 02Rules, not hunches: normally at least 90% of assets sit in common stocks from the STOXX World AC NexGen Connectivity Index.invesco.com
  3. 03Global mandate rather than a US-only tech sleeve, spread across roughly 100 holdings, with distributions paid quarterly.
  4. 04An operating history running back to 2005, a long resume in a category where most theme funds are only a few years old.

Worth knowing

  1. 01Thinly traded. Spreads can widen and quotes get jumpy, especially away from the market's busiest hours.
  2. 02One theme, roughly 100 stocks. The ride can look nothing like a broad global index in either direction.
  3. 03Asset base is modest by ETF standards, which is worth knowing for anyone sizing a large position.
