Defiance Connective Technologies ETF

SIXG

Market cap $764M

The Defiance Connective Technologies ETF is rated a strong buy, driven by bullish trends in AI, 6G, and data center growth. SIXG benefits from global AI investments, rapid 6G wireless adoption, and ongoing data center expansion, supporting robust long-term growth. Compared to peers, SIXG offers the lowest expense ratio, strong 3-year performance, and a competitive dividend yield, making it highly attractive.

SIXG offers diversified exposure to 5G/6G and AI connectivity, with holdings in key tech enablers like Oracle, Broadcom, and Cisco. I forecast substantial growth in AI infrastructure, supporting strong long-term upside for SIXG despite some short-term laggards like Apple. SIXG's passive index approach means investors must monitor for portfolio overlap and concentration risks, especially with the Nasdaq-100.

Four sectors -- Consumer Discretionary, Financials, Telecom and Technology -- were crowned as top performers from the basis of average three-month return.

The Defiance Connective Technologies ETF offers exposure to companies leading in 5G, IoT, and cloud computing, crucial for the next tech revolution. SIXG's top holdings include Nvidia, Oracle, Broadcom, Apple, and Cisco, focusing mainly on U.S. companies but also featuring global diversity. Compared to other tech ETFs, SIXG's specific focus on connective technologies provides a fuller picture of the ecosystem, though it may be more volatile.
