About
The VanEck Social Sentiment ETF (BUZZ) endeavors to faithfully replicate the financial returns, in terms of both price appreciation and income generated, of a specific benchmark index before accounting for any operational costs. This benchmark, the BUZZ NextGen AI US Sentiment Leaders Index (BUZZTR), is designed to capture the performance of seventy-five leading large-capitalization American companies. These companies are selected based on their demonstration of the strongest positive investor sentiment and bullish market perception. This "buzz" is quantitatively assessed by aggregating and analyzing a broad range of online content, including interactions on social media platforms, published news articles, blog entries, and other diverse alternative data sources.
