But could more gains be ahead for this ETF? Let’s take a quick look at the fund and the near-term outlook to get a better idea on where it might be headed: 

FCA in Focus

Real Estate, Consumer Discretionary, Information Technology and Materials have a double-digit weight in the fund. The fund charges 80 bps in total fees (see all Asia-Pacific (Emerging) ETFs here).

Why the Move?

Sentiments around Chinese stocks have been upbeat lately. According to the official data released in mid-July, China's GDP, urban investment, factory output and retail sales data beat economists’ expectations. While China has been struggling with high debt levels, an improving economic outlook and higher external demand for Chinese products may help the country to fight its debt issue, as per the source.

 More Gains Ahead? 

The fund has a positive weighted alpha of 39.30. A positive weighted alpha hints at more gains. As a result, there is definitely still some promise for investors who want to ride on this surging ETF.

From thousands of stocks, 5 Zacks experts each have chosen their favorite to skyrocket +100% or more in months to come. From those 5, Director of Research Sheraz Mian hand-picks one to have the most explosive upside of all.

It’s a little-known chemical company that’s up 65% over last year, yet still dirt cheap. With unrelenting demand, soaring 2022 earnings estimates, and $1.5 billion for repurchasing shares, retail investors could jump in at any time.
