T. Bailey Global Thematic Equity Fund Portfolio Manager | “Geopolitical tensions and rising cyber threats drove strong performance for this fund in Q2. The Israel/Iran conflict intensified focus on digital warfare, prompting increased investment in cyber defence across public and private sectors. Demand for technologies such as real-time threat detection accelerated, benefiting holdings including CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, and Cisco. With exposure to the cybersecurity value chain, the ETF remains well positioned to capture ongoing growth in digital security. BSD Analysis: The First Trust Cyber Security ETF (CIBR) is a pure-play, thematic investment vehicle whose stock is a clean, diversified bet on the non-cyclical, accelerating global spending on cybersecurity. The core thesis is driven by the Zacks consensus that the cybersecurity sector is poised for multi-year growth due to the relentless complexity of cyber threats. The ETF provides exposure to a concentrated portfolio of companies whose primary business is in the cybersecurity segment, including major players like Broadcom (10.69% weight) and CrowdStrike (9.48% weight). The stock is a high-growth, defensive play on the non-discretionary corporate and government need to secure data and infrastructure.” | BULL | Q2 2025 Jun 30, 2025 | View Pitch |
