A lineup that spans disruptive technology, equity income, commodities, and other hard-to-access solutions. Or simply put, we strive to offer investors something beyond ordinary. Global X ETFs look beyond traditional geographic or sector exposures, targeting companies poised to benefit from structural shifts in disruptive technology, people and demographics, physical environment and income.

Today, our lineup of US-listed ETFs spans more than 80 strategies, with a pool of USD $42 billion in assets under management. Our thematic and income ETFs are probably our best known. The former seek to harness disruptive forces in technology, demographics and the physical environment, while the latter emphasize alternative sources of yield, including covered call options and preferred stock.

Disruptive Technology – Investing in companies at the cutting edge of trends disrupting our economy and reshaping the future. Solutions focus primarily on structural shifts in technology and demographics. In business theory, disruptive innovation is innovation that creates a new market and value network or enters at the bottom of an existing market and eventually displaces established market-leading firms, products, and alliances.

The Global X Lithium & Battery Tech (LIT) invests in companies throughout the lithium cycle, including mining, refinement and battery production, cutting across traditional sector and geographic definitions. Lithium demand is expected to increase by over 200% during the next five years, rising from 300,000 mt in 2020 to 1 million mt by 2025. By 2030, demand could reach 2 million mt. But it takes time to bring on additional lithium supply. Depending on the method of extraction, bringing new capacity online can take 3–5 years or more of studies, permitting, capital raising, and capital expenditure before any lithium is produced. Therefore, rapid demand growth for EVs could be limited by supply-side upstream lithium mining capacity conditions.

The Global X FinTech ETF (FINX) seeks to invest in companies on the leading edge of the emerging financial technology sector, which encompasses a range of innovations helping to transform established industries like insurance, investing, fundraising, and third-party lending through unique mobile and digital solutions. FinTech’s reputation is that of a disruptor of traditional financial services. That reputation is well-earned, but it doesn’t tell the whole story. FinTech firms also offer technologies that help traditional financial services companies enhance their services, rather than disrupting them. Cloud banking is one such growing vertical. Worldwide banking spending on enterprise software solutions is expected to increase 11% year-over-year to $112 billion in 2021.8

The Global X Emerging Markets Bond ETF (EMBD) is an actively managed fund sub-advised by Mirae Asset Global Investments (USA) LLC that seeks a high level of total return, consisting of both income and capital appreciation, by investing in emerging market debt. EMBD primarily invests in emerging market debt securities denominated in U.S. dollars, however, the Fund may also invest in those denominated in applicable local foreign currencies. Securities may include fixed-rate and floating-rate debt instruments issued by sovereign, quasi-sovereign, and corporate entities from emerging market countries. EMBD’s portfolio managers incorporate both top-down macro views consistent and bottom-up fundamental research to evaluate the investment attractiveness of select countries and companies that are believed to offer superior risk-adjusted returns.

The Global X Blockchain ETF (BKCH) seeks to invest in companies positioned to benefit from the increased adoption of blockchain technology, including companies in digital asset mining, blockchain & digital asset transactions, blockchain applications, blockchain & digital asset hardware, and blockchain & digital asset integration. In its most basic sense, a blockchain is a type of database focused on recording and maintaining data. But its unique properties stem from its decentralized – or distributed ledger – approach. In a centralized database, a singular authority retains total control over all aspects, including entering data, ensuring its validity, and maintaining that data.

The Global X Hydrogen ETF (HYDR) seeks to invest in companies that stand to benefit from the advancement of the global hydrogen industry. This includes companies involved in hydrogen production; the integration of hydrogen into energy systems; and the development/manufacturing of hydrogen fuel cells, electrolyzers, and other technologies related to the utilization of hydrogen as an energy source. More available and affordable renewable energy production is a key enabler of green hydrogen, as discussed, but this dynamic goes both ways. Energy storage is fundamental to the widespread integration of variable renewable energy (VRE) sources like wind and solar PV for which environmental factors directly affect electricity generation.

The Global X AgTech & Food Innovation ETF (KROP) seeks to invest in companies advancing innovation and the use of technology in the agriculture and food industries. This includes companies involved in the provision of agricultural technologies (“AgTech”) related to precision agriculture, agricultural robots and automation, controlled environment agriculture (e.g., vertical farming, hydroponics), and agricultural biotechnology, as well as those involved in food innovation activities related to protein/dairy alternatives and food waste reduction. Modern agriculture encompasses multiple systems that are tied together by the common thread of plant and livestock cultivation

The Global X Genomics & Biotechnology ETF (GNOM) seeks to invest in companies that potentially stand to benefit from further advances in the field of genomic science, such as companies involved in gene editing, genomic sequencing, genetic medicine/therapy, computational genomics, and biotechnology. Genomics is the study of an organism’s complete set of genetic information, or genome. Using ourselves for context, our DNA contains our genetic information and the complete set of our DNA is our genome. Every living thing has its own genome. Viruses, which are not alive, also have their own genomes. Genomic subsciences like genomic sequencing and computational genomics give us insight into genomes’ functionality, while genetic therapies and gene editing seek to use that information for medical or other purposes.

The Global X S&P 500 Quality Dividend ETF (QDIV) invests in U.S. equity securities included in the S&P 500 Index that rank within the top 200 of the index’s universe by both quality score and dividend yield. Dividend strategies largely fall into one of three categories – high dividend, dividend growth, and quality dividend – each with their own characteristics and objectives. Defensive Dividends are dividends that are not an obligation for a company, so during weak economic periods, dividends can be at risk.

The Global X Telemedicine & Digital Health ETF (EDOC) seeks to invest in companies positioned to benefit from further advances in the field of telemedicine and digital health. This includes companies involved in Telemedicine, Health Care Analytics, Connected Health Care Devices, and Administrative Digitization. Healthcare systems pivoted quickly to limit COVID-19’s spread last year. In many cases, telemedicine became standard patient care. Since March 2020, the Mayo Clinic has conducted more telehealth visits per day than all such visits combined in 2019.3 Total annual virtual visits for Teladoc, a leading telemedicine provider, increased 156% year-over-year to 10.6 million in 2020.

The Global X U.S. Infrastructure Development ETF (PAVE) seeks to invest in companies that stand to benefit from a potential increase in infrastructure activity in the United States, including those involved in the production of raw materials, heavy equipment, engineering, and construction. Infrastructure in the United States is chronically underfunded and deteriorating. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act represents the most significant investment in infrastructure in the country’s history and will serve as a remedy to these issues for many years to come. The potential for additional spending on clean energy and social infrastructure from the Build Back Better Plan could take this a step further. In our view, such spending will translate to revenues for companies involved in infrastructure development and that derive a significant share of their revenues from the U.S.

This includes companies involved in hydrogen production; the integration of hydrogen into energy systems; and the development, manufacturing of hydrogen fuel cells, electrolyzers, and other technologies related to the utilization of hydrogen as an energy source. Hydrogen is the most abundant and lightest element in the universe. At standard conditions, hydrogen is a gas (H2) that has immense potential as an energy carrier, containing three times more energy content by weight than gasoline.(1) On earth, it only naturally occurs bonded to other elements in molecules like water (H2O) and methane (CH4), and must be isolated as H2 for use on its own – which we refer to as hydrogen production.

The Global X Aging Population ETF (AGNG) seeks to invest in companies positioned to serve the world’s growing senior population through exposure to health care, pharmaceuticals, senior living facilities and other sectors that contribute to increasing lifespans and extending quality of life in advanced age. Aging societies are a worldwide phenomenon driven by several long-term demographic and lifestyle trends. Breakthroughs in healthcare, sanitation and nutrition; mass urbanization; and the introduction of social security systems to supplement old-age income have all helped elongate the human lifespan.(1) Today, for instance, there are more centenarians, or people living above the age of 100, than at any point in history. In Japan alone, there are nearly 70,000, up from just 153 in 1963.(2) And globally, average life expectancy is now 72, up from 67 in 2000. (3)

The Global X Nasdaq 100 Covered Call ETF (QYLD) follows a “covered call” or “buy-write” strategy, in which the Fund buys the stocks in the Nasdaq 100 Index and “writes” or “sells” corresponding call options on the same index. Should a period of rising interest rates present a headwind for the Nasdaq 100, one way to potentially enhance returns is to generate income from a covered call strategy. This involves purchasing the stocks in the Nasdaq 100 Index and subsequently writing call options on the index. Covered calls strategies limit upside participation but can generate income through collecting the premiums received from option-writing. In volatile markets, option premiums tend to rise, and therefore, covered call strategies tend to perform best in choppy or sideways markets rather than in major bull or bear markets.

The Global X Disruptive Materials ETF (DMAT) seeks to invest in companies producing metals and other raw materials that are essential to the expansion of disruptive technologies, such as lithium batteries, solar panels, wind turbines, fuel cells, robotics, and 3D printers. Targeted materials include companies involved in the exploration, mining, production and/or enhancement of Rare Earth Materials, Zinc, Palladium & Platinum, Nickel, Manganese, Lithium, Graphene & Graphite, Copper, Cobalt & Carbon Fiber.

Today, the disruptive materials theme is in its early stages amid structurally changing demand drivers for certain raw components. Several companies across the Energy and Materials sectors are looking to enhance their exposure to the space by buying mines, land, processing capabilities, and established companies involved in disruptive materials. As companies move further into disruptive materials, we expect revenue profiles to shift significantly.
