NXTI vs. CRTC ETF Comparison

Comparison of Simplify Next Intangible Core Index ETF (NXTI) to Xtrackers US National Critical Technologies ETF (CRTC)

NXTI

Simplify Next Intangible Core Index ETF

NXTI Description

NXTI targets US companies with relatively high intangible capital-to-book assets ratios within their respective sectors. The fund defines intangible capital as productive assets that lack physical presence and are created through investments in brand, knowledge, and organization capital. The index construction starts by calculating a ratio of intangible capital-to-book assets for each security in an initial universe consisting of the largest 2000 US companies by market-cap. The 200 stocks with the highest intangible capital-to-book assets ratio are selected for inclusion. At least five stocks are included from each of the 13 sectors determined by the index provider using a combination of SIC and NAICS codes along with data from publicly available 10-K filings. Constituents are weighted by market capitalization, with individual security weights capped at 5%. The index reconstitutes quarterly.

CRTC

Xtrackers US National Critical Technologies ETF

CRTC Description

CRTC tracks an index of large- and mid-cap companies considered to support critical emerging technologies to the US and its allies. Companies must be associated with one of 14 critical technology sectors and pose low geopolitical risk. Critical technology sectors are determined by a division of the US DoD and include biotechnology, quantum science, wireless tech, advanced materials, advanced computing or software, directed or renewable energy, human-machine interfaces, hypersonics, integration of systems, integrated sensing and cyber, microelectronics, space technology, AI and autonomy. A model developed by J.H. Whitney aims to quantify the level of entanglement that companies share with nation-states defined as adversarial to the US. Companies with a lower geostrategic risk rating are considered. A selection party determines the index holdings on the last Thursday of January, April, July, and October. Holdings are market cap weighted. Rebalance occurs ten days after the selection date.
