Strategy

The Global X Semiconductor ETF (SEMI) aims to mimic the performance of the Solactive Global Semiconductor 30 Index prior to incorporating taxes, fees, and expenses.

YMAX.AX was created on 2012-11-22 by BetaShares. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on large cap equity. YMAX.AX aims to generate attractive quarterly income and reduce the volatility of portfolio returns by implementing an equity income investment strategy over a portfolio of the 20 largest blue-chip shares listed on the ASX. YMAX.AX does not aim to track an index.
