The iShares Global Consumer Staples ETF (KXI) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the performance of global equities in the consumer staples sector. The fund invests at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of its underlying index, as well as in instruments with substantially identical economic characteristics. Up to 20% of assets may be allocated to futures, options, swap contracts, and cash or cash equivalents.
The consumer staples sector encompasses companies that produce essential everyday goods such as food, beverages, household products, and tobacco. These businesses tend to generate relatively stable demand across economic cycles, which is why the sector is often classified as defensive. As an ETF, KXI provides investors with diversified, single-trade exposure to this group of global equities.
