Abstract generation in progress

The Global X FinTech ETF (FINX) has fallen nearly 17% so far this year, with major holdings including Coinbase (6.2%), Block (5.5%), and SoFi (5.3%), as well as shares in Bitcoin miners like Riot Platforms. In contrast, the First Trust NASDAQ Cybersecurity ETF (CIBR) has declined about 9%, with top holdings such as Cisco (9.3%), Palo Alto Networks (8%), and CrowdStrike (7.7%). This difference is due to FINX being more sensitive to rising interest rates and market volatility because of its high-valuation stocks; meanwhile, CIBR benefits from steady corporate security budgets and discretionary spending.
