FEZ Profile
The SPDR EURO STOXX 50 ETF is designed to track the performance of the EURO STOXX 50 Index, a benchmark that represents the largest and most liquid blue-chip companies across the Eurozone. The fund utilizes a sampling strategy, allowing it to invest in a representative selection of the index’s components rather than holding every security within the index. This approach enables the ETF to closely mirror the performance of the benchmark while maintaining a diversified portfolio.
The ETF generally allocates at least 80% of its total assets to the securities included in the EURO STOXX 50 Index. This index is market capitalization-weighted and includes companies from 20 EURO STOXX Supersector Indexes, which are further subsets of the broader EURO STOXX Index. These supersectors cover a range of industries, ensuring that the ETF provides comprehensive exposure to major sectors within the Eurozone.
The SPDR EURO STOXX 50 ETF offers investors exposure to a diverse array of large-cap companies operating across various European countries. By focusing on the largest and most influential companies within the Eurozone, the ETF provides a snapshot of the region’s economic health and market performance. Its market capitalization weighting means that larger companies have a greater impact on the fund's performance, aligning it closely with the index.
As part of the SPDR family of ETFs, this fund benefits from the extensive experience and robust infrastructure of State Street Global Advisors.
