Description: EWZ iShares MSCI Brazil November 05, 2025

The iShares MSCI Brazil ETF (EWZ) seeks to track a free-float, market-cap weighted index that represents Brazil’s large- and mid-cap equities, investing at least 80 % of its assets in the index’s component securities or economically equivalent holdings; the fund is classified as non-diversified under U.S. regulations.

Key data points to consider: (1) the top three holdings are Petrobras (≈13 % of assets), Vale (≈9 %) and Itau Unibanco (≈7 %), together accounting for roughly 30 % of the portfolio; (2) sector exposure is heavily weighted toward financials (~45 %) and materials (~30 %), reflecting Brazil’s reliance on banking and commodity exports; (3) the fund’s expense ratio is 0.48 % and its 12-month total return has been volatile, swinging from +35 % in early 2024 to –12 % after the March 2024 political shock, underscoring sensitivity to domestic GDP growth (forecast ~2.2 % YoY) and commodity price swings.
