The last week saw semiconductor stocks and related AI names under pressure while broader equity markets held up ok in the face of rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and wavering AI leadership.
Clients bought into a couple of semiconductor ETFs, with the VanEck Semiconductor UCITS ETF the most actively traded of our ETFs last week.
The strongest buy-to-sell trading ratios were in broad index trackers – the Vanguard S&P 500 Acc UCITS ETF and Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS ETF attracting buy percentages in the eighties.
We saw strong buying a pair of FTSE 100 ETFs and likewise in a brace of Nasdaq-100 tracker funds.
