It holds an overall rank of #291 out of 458 tracked ETFs and sits fifth among its 15 category peers. The fund carries a C grade with a score of 56.3 out of 100, reflecting a cost structure where the 0.56% expense ratio exceeds the category median of 0.52%.

Concentration risk is moderate, with the top ten holdings comprising 60.2% of assets and Bayer AG representing the largest single position at 9.3%.

The fund's price of $81.69 places it at 61.9% of its 52-week trading range, indicating a position closer to the upper end of recent volatility. Short-term momentum has been negative, with one-month and three-month returns of -1.98% and -1.58% respectively, contrasting with a stronger one-year return of +14.43%. This long-term performance exceeds the category median 1-year return of +10.74%, suggesting resilience over the full year despite recent dips. Year-to-date gains of +10.87% highlight a positive trend for the current period. The ETFValuer grade has remained unchanged at C over the last 35 tracked days, showing stability in its assessment. Historical data is limited to 3.0 years, which constrains the depth of long-term trend analysis.

Risk metrics indicate a defensive profile, with a beta of 0.54 suggesting the fund moves less than half as much as the broader market. Annualized volatility is recorded at 14.81%, which is labeled as Low for this category. The Sharpe ratio of 0.64 implies that risk-adjusted returns have been modest relative to the volatility taken. Maximum drawdowns have reached -18.34%, representing the largest peak-to-trough decline observed in the record. Liquidity is supported by an average daily volume of 311,009 shares, facilitating standard trading activity.

MOO Liquidity, Domicile & Tax Treatment

Liquidity: Average daily volume is 311K/day. Higher volume and a larger fund generally mean lower round-trip trading costs. AUM of $1.14B provides ample scale, supporting tight spreads and issuer commitment to keep the fund open.

Domicile & tax treatment: MOO is a US-domiciled, SEC-registered ('40 Act) exchange-traded fund. Dividends and capital gains distributions are reported to US investors on Form 1099-DIV, and the fund is not subject to the PFIC reporting or UCITS-specific rules that apply to Irish- or Luxembourg-domiciled funds. Non-US investors should note that US-domiciled ETFs are generally subject to 30% US withholding tax on dividends (unless reduced by treaty) and to US estate tax exposure on the position — Irish-domiciled UCITS ETFs tracking the same index often avoid both, which is why non-US residents frequently prefer the UCITS equivalent where one exists. This is general information, not tax advice — consult a tax professional for your situation.
