Our read on THMZ
CMost thematic funds make you pick one future: AI, water, space, clean power. THMZ buys the whole board instead, with Lazard's thematic team actively spreading a global stock portfolio across several megatrends at once.
THMZ is the ticker shown for Lazard Equity Megatrends ETF on NASDAQ.
Why people hold it
- One ticket, many themes: the managers turn technological, demographic and geopolitical shifts into a set of diversified themes rather than staking the fund on a single story.lazard.comlazardassetmanagement.com
- Actively run, global by design: established, well managed companies worldwide including emerging markets, with at least 80% of net assets in equity and equity-related securities.lazardassetmanagement.comfinance.yahoo.com
- The holdings are the sturdiest part of the picture: large, established global businesses instead of speculative pure-plays. Income is paid on a quarterly schedule.lazardassetmanagement.com
Worth knowing
- At 0.60% a year it prices a touch above the global-thematic midpoint and well above index-built rivals such as KLMT (0.10%) and IQSZ (0.19%). Active work, active price tag.
- Launched in 2025 and non-diversified: there is no long record to lean on, and individual positions can run larger than in a spread-out fund.finance.yahoo.com
- Thinly traded next to the category's heavyweights, so spreads can be wider and less forgiving. Limit orders are the usual answer.
