          MAKX: Beware Of Thematic ETFs
        
        
          MAKX, a thematic ETF focused on manufacturing automation, has low assets and liquidity, posing a high risk of discontinuation. MAKX and its peers' poor track record highlights the pitfalls of thematic ETFs, which often fail to translate trends into profitable investments. Investing in well-managed manufacturing companies with automation projects is a better strategy than thematic ETFs like MAKX, which focus on infrastructure suppliers.
