$QTUM ETF, Disruptive Tech Exposure without the Soul Searching

MIAMI, Dec. 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- 2021 has been a momentous year for quantum computing. We saw two quantum companies, Rigetti and IonQ go public and a new UK-US- Australia security pact that acknowledged the centrality of quantum computing. The US's commitment to beating China in this crucial field is evident in the $250bn Bill passed by the Senate in June.

December saw the merger of two quantum giants, Honeywell Quantum Solutions and Cambridge Quantum to form Quantinuum. The combined entity is hoped to rival the legacy tech giants who are also racing towards quantum supremacy.

A recent report published by the Street.com ranked QTUM as one of the top tech ETFs for 2022, beating out all of all of GlobalX's and Ark's suite of ETFs. QTUM's values has risen over 34% so far in 2021, compared to ARKK's being down 22%.

QTUM launched in September 2018 and now has over $170 million in AUM. With 70 holdings and a 0.40% expense ratio, Defiance's QTUM ETF offers diversified yet targeted exposure to a range of top cloud computing, machine learning and quantum computing stocks.

A portfolio concentrated in a single industry or country, may be subject to a higher degree of risk. The value of stocks of information technology companies are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation and competition. The Funds are considered to be non-diversified, so they may invest more of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers. Investments in foreign securities involve certain risks including risk of loss due to foreign currency fluctuations or to political or economic instability. This risk is magnified in emerging markets. Small and mid-cap companies are subject to greater and more unpredictable price changes than securities of large-cap companies.The possible applications of quantum computing are only in the exploration stages, and the possibility of returns is uncertain and may not be realized in the near future.
