In this episode of ETF Spotlight, I speak with Christian Magoon, Founder and CEO of Amplify ETFs, about some intriguing areas of the market that have attracted investors amid ongoing market volatility: cybersecurity, income, and Bitcoin.
The global market for cybersecurity products and services is expected to witness immense growth as more companies incorporate AI into their operations—while criminals are also leveraging AI technology to amplify and intensify cyberattacks.
While many companies may cut discretionary spending this year due to rising economic uncertainty, cybersecurity remains an area they cannot afford to ignore.
Google parent Alphabet (GOOGL - Free Report) recently announced a deal to acquire cybersecurity startup Wiz for $32 billion. We could see an increase in M&A activity in the cybersecurity space.
Launched in 2014, HACK was the first cybersecurity ETF designed to provide cost-effective exposure to companies in the growing cybersecurity industry.
Income-hungry investors have been piling into ETFs that use options strategies to generate attractive yields. In addition to offering high income, these strategies typically help reduce portfolio volatility.
The Amplify CWP Enhanced Dividend Income ETF (DIVO - Free Report) focuses on high-quality large-cap companies with a history of dividend growth and writes covered calls on individual stocks. Meta Platforms (META - Free Report) and Apple (AAPL - Free Report) are among its top holdings.
While DIVO has significantly outperformed the market leader—JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (JEPI - Free Report) —both have underperformed the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) over the long term on a total return basis. Who are the ideal users of these products?
The Amplify International Enhanced Dividend Income ETF (IDVO - Free Report) follows the same strategy as DIVO but invests in international stocks.
Newly launched Amplify ETFs combine two of the hottest trends: Bitcoin and income. They employ a covered call strategy tied to Bitcoin price exposure through the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT - Free Report) .
