Description: IXP iShares Global Comm October 24, 2025
The iShares Global Communication Services ETF (NYSE ARCA: IXP) seeks to track an index that captures the performance of global equities in the communication services sector. At least 80% of its assets are invested in the index’s component securities or in securities that are “substantially identical” in economic characteristics, and the fund is classified as non-diversified under SEC rules.
Key quantitative facts (as of Q3 2025): the fund holds roughly 180 stocks with an expense ratio of 0.46% and total assets under management of about $2.3 billion. Its top holdings are dominated by large-cap tech-telecom hybrids-Alphabet (≈ 9% weight), Meta Platforms (≈ 7%), and Tencent (≈ 6%)-which together account for roughly 22% of the portfolio. The sector’s growth drivers include sustained 5G rollout (global capex projected at $1.1 trillion in 2025, a 12% YoY increase), rising streaming and digital advertising spend (global ad-tech market growing ~5% YoY), and expanding broadband penetration in emerging markets, all of which underpin earnings growth for the underlying companies.
