Investors should read the sales documents before making a final investment decision.
On November 27, 2024, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade will celebrate its 100th anniversary, an event in New York City that has kicked off the Christmas shopping season for a century. The following day is known as Black Friday. The "Black Friday Sales" were once characterized by people camping overnight outside stores to be the first to buy heavily discounted televisions – the bigger, the better. Now, many people want wearable technology, known as wearables. In this case, the rule is: the smaller, the better!
Wearables refer to electronic devices that can be worn in the form of clothing, jewelry, or other accessories. Tiny but powerful sensors can monitor everything from sleep patterns to blood sugar levels, providing the wearer with valuable – potentially life-saving – information. This information is often readily accessible, as seen with smartwatches.
Smart socks can monitor stress levels and detect signs that are helpful for caregivers working with dementia patients. Another example includes prosthetic gloves that can assist individuals in performing everyday tasks. Artificial intelligence (AI) is already being integrated into wearable devices.
Investors can invest in companies leading the field of wearable technology through ETFs such as the Invesco EQQQ Nasdaq-100 (Dist) that track Nasdaq indices. The Nasdaq is home to innovative and forward-looking technology companies, from Apple and Alphabet (the parent company of the Fitbit brand) to some that may not yet be household names. Over 35% of the wearable tech patents filed in 2023 belong to companies in the Nasdaq-100 index. Nasdaq companies are also involved in other promising cutting-edge technologies, including AI and cybersecurity.
Significant Risks
Complete information on the risks can be found in the sales documents.
Investing in these funds involves acquiring shares in passively managed, index-tracking funds and not acquiring the assets held by the fund.
The value of investments and the returns therefrom are subject to fluctuations. This may be partly due to changes in exchange rates. It is possible that investors may not receive the full amount invested when redeeming their shares. Funds may be exposed to the risk that the borrower fails to return the securities at the end of the loan period and that they cannot sell the collateral provided in the event of a borrower's default. Funds may be concentrated in a specific region or sector or engaged in a limited number of positions, which could lead to greater fluctuations in the fund's value compared to a more diversified fund. The value of stocks can be influenced by certain factors such as the circumstances of the issuer or economic and market conditions, leading to value fluctuations.
