- CHQQ provides exposure to 30 major Hong Kong-listed tech firms in sectors like fintech, cloud computing, and autonomous vehicles
- AGCC introduces a silver covered call strategy, the first of its kind in Canada, amid a 63.72 per cent YTD surge in silver prices and rising volatility
- TSTX and TLTX offer access to U.S. Treasury bonds, with TSTX being the first Canadian ETF to track the ICE U.S. Treasury 1-3 Year Bond Index
Global X Investments Canada Inc. has launched four new exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on the Toronto Stock Exchange, expanding its suite of investment products with offerings that include first-in-Canada exposure to the China Hang Seng TECH Index, a silver bullion covered call strategy, and two U.S. Treasury bond ETFs.
Among the newly listed funds is the Global X China Hang Seng TECH Index ETF (CHQQ), which provides Canadian investors with direct access to the Hang Seng TECH Index. The index tracks 30 of the largest technology companies listed in Hong Kong, spanning sectors such as financial technology, cloud computing, autonomous vehicles, and e-commerce. As of October 1, the Hang Seng TECH Index had risen over 37 per cent in the past year, outperforming the broader Hang Seng Index, which gained 31 per cent over the same period.
Also debuting is the Global X Silver Covered Call ETF (AGCC), the first ETF in Canada to apply a covered call strategy to silver bullion. The launch comes amid a surge in silver prices, which have climbed 63.72 per cent year-to-date as of October 1, outpacing gold’s 47.92 per cent increase. The silver market has also experienced heightened implied volatility, with one-month at-the-money options averaging eight volatility points higher than gold equivalents in 2025. AGCC joins Global X’s existing commodity-focused options lineup, including the Global X Gold Yield ETF (HGY), launched in 2010.
Rounding out the new offerings are two U.S. Treasury bond ETFs: the Global X 1-3 Year US Treasury Bond Index ETF (TSTX) and the Global X 20+ Year US Treasury Bond Index ETF (TLTX). TSTX is the first Canadian-listed ETF to track the ICE U.S. Treasury 1-3 Year Bond Index, offering short-term exposure to U.S. government debt. TLTX tracks the ICE U.S. Treasury 20+ Year Bond Index, providing access to long-duration bonds. Both ETFs are available in CAD, CAD-hedged, and USD units.
“At a time when global diversification is front and centre for many advisors and investors, CHQQ offers a new opportunity for Canadians to get exposure to leading tech companies within China, one of the world’s most populous markets,” Chris McHaney, executive vice president and head of investment management and strategy at Global X said in a news release. “For investors with strong-conviction on the future growth of technology, taking an expanded approach on one of the dominant tech-focused indices can help ensure they’re capturing the global opportunity unfolding rapidly, outside of North America.”
