XNTK in Focus

This product provides exposure to the leading U.S.-listed companies in the Information Technology sector and the technology-related stocks in the Consumer Discretionary sector.

Why the Move?

The technology corner of the broad U.S. stock market has been an area to watch lately given that the tech-laden Nasdaq is hitting record highs. Most of the rally has been powered by renewed buying in the high-growth tech giants on easing of tapering fears as well as optimism over a sustained economic recovery.
