Overview of SPDR® S&P Telecom ETF offerings
Targeted Exposure to Telecommunication Companies: XTL offers targeted investment in a basket of U.S. and foreign companies that derive a significant portion of their revenue from the telecommunications sector. This includes companies involved in wireless and wireline network services, internet access, and other related services.
Tracks S&P Telecommunications Select Industry Index: XTL passively tracks the performance of the S&P Telecommunications Select Industry Index. This index measures the performance of companies classified in the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) Telecommunications Services Sub-Industry.
Capital Appreciation Potential: The primary objective of XTL is to achieve capital appreciation for investors through potential price increases of the underlying telecommunication stocks in the portfolio.
Sector Concentration Risk: As XTL focuses on a single industry sector, its performance is more tied to the fortunes of the telecommunication industry compared to a broader market ETF. This can lead to higher volatility if the sector experiences challenges.
Dividend Distribution Potential: Many telecommunication companies have a history of paying dividends to shareholders. XTL may distribute dividends periodically, reflecting the dividend payouts from the underlying holdings in the ETF.
