Its character
A narrow, single-theme fund of around 26 video-game and esports companies, with meaningful exposure to Asian markets. Very concentrated, so a few large holdings drive much of the result.
What to keep in mind
With only around 26 holdings in one theme, this is highly concentrated — a handful of companies and the popularity of gaming drive its returns. It also carries emerging-market and currency exposure, so it can be volatile.
