Investors want results, and EasyAssetManagement has delivered. Across the three Actively Managed ETFs (“AMETFs”) that EAM manages under the EasyETFs Scheme, EasyAssetManagement has outperformed major benchmarks. But what’s driving these returns? Shaun Krom from EAM explains their strategy.
EasyETFs AI AMETF Outperformed the Fund Benchmark in 2024
EasyAssetManagement's AI strategy in the EasyETFs AI World AMETF delivered a 26.06% return in 2024, outperforming the Morningstar Global AI Select Index, which returned 12.82% - a 13.24 percentage point difference.
The AI sector has been booming, but not all AI stocks have performed equally. While many investors poured money into semiconductors like Nvidia, EAM took a different approach, EAM focused on companies actually deploying AI into their products and making a real impact on consumers.
Our Winners?
AI-driven software, networking, and optical companies, the businesses enabling the AI revolution behind the scenes. The team behind EAM picked the right AI stocks, companies that are applying AI, not just talking about it.
