T. Rowe Price Integrated Global Equity UCITS ETF | ISIN: IE000EZK03S4 | Xetra: $TRPG

T. Rowe Price Integrated US Equity Enhanced Index UCITS ETF | ISIN: IE000XY8XBU2 | Xetra: $TRPU

* $TRPG at 0.25% and $TRPU at 0.14% but waived to _0.00%_ to at least October next year. Unfortunately the prospectus, KID, PRIPs or even factsheet nowhere to be found so this is just literally hearsay (!) for now. 

I can confirm from the Central Bank of Ireland's registers that the ETFs were "approved" back in September, but as the prospectus distribution is pushed to exchanges/issuers instead of a centralized location investors are at the mercy of varying degrees of document presentation. I really appreciate the SEC's EDGAR much more now.

ETF issuers entering the European market really need to have all the fund documentation lined up with the launch date, at the same time they put out all the marketing and press releases go out.

ProShares Nasdaq-100 Dorsey Wright Momentum ETF

Ticker: QQQA
Exchange: NASDAQ

Summary

One of those rare non-leveraged ProShares, tracks index of 21 stocks whose price have appreciated most in previous quarter. 

Analysis

For proponents and fans of the Dorsey Wright methodology, this QQQA will also appeal to traditional momentum and possibly technical traders. The investment thesis is straightforward and thus easy to articulate to advisers, and backed by a known name in ETFs.

However, the price is relatively high for a portfolio of 21 securities, and the positioning will be challenging amidst the competition.

This fund has a 3/5 AUM growth potential.

Expense ratio: 0.58%
