ETFs in focus: Which strategies bring the best returns?
Reported on January 17, 2025 finance.net from a large number of financial producing companies that are active in the area of ETFs. These include DWS, Xtrackers, Amundi, BlackRock/iShares, Vanguard, Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, Invesco, WisdomTree, Aberdeen Standard Investments, abrdn Investments, American Century Investment Management and ARK Investment Management. These providers cover a wide range of asset classes, including equity indices, alternative investments, money market, real estate, bonds, forex and commodities. Various benchmarks such as the DAX, EuroStoxx50, MDAX, MSCI Emerging Markets, S&P 500, Nasdaq 100 and Nikkei 225 are also listed.
The volume of ETFs varies widely and is divided into categories including <5 million, 5 - 10 million, 10 - 50 million, 50 - 100 million, 100 - 250 million, 250 - 500 million, 500 - 1000 million, 1000 - 5000 million and > 5000 million. The Total Expense Ratio (TER) is also divided into different categories, from up to 0.15% to over 0.75%. In terms of distribution types, both accumulating and distributing funds are offered, and there are different long/short strategies. The funds can also be sorted by name, 1-year, 3-year and 5-year performance.
Investment focus on European companies
Another important aspect that was highlighted concerns DWS' strategies in the area of active investments, such as dws.com described. The focus there is on a selection of European companies with above-average dividends as part of the European Equity Income. This strategy seeks to identify quality stocks with solid balance sheets and free cash flow. The companies included in the selection should have low debt and a good credit rating.
In addition, the “European Equities” strategy follows a similar approach and also focuses on European companies with high dividends. The “European Equity Focused Alpha” strategy aims to select the best investment ideas from large, small and medium-sized European companies without a benchmark link and can include up to 50% short positions to actively manage the investment. Finally, the “Euroland Equities” equity strategy focuses on European companies with potentially above-average earnings growth and makes use of in-house stock picking expertise.
