Clean and Sustainable- Next Gen Hydrogen ETF

None of the existing alternative energy sources can provide sufficient, consistent and cost-effective energy supply. Green Hydrogen can, and it is a zero-emission fuel with a sole waste product of water.

HDRO, the Defiance Next Gen H2 ETF, tracks the BlueStar Global Hydrogen & Next Gen Fuel Cell Index. The rules-based index tracks the performance of a group of globally listed equities and of companies, who generate at least 50% of their revenue from their involvement in the development of hydrogen-based energy sources, fuel cell technologies and industrial gases.

Cutting Edge H2 ETF

Defiance’s hydrogen ETF index seeks to include the most liquid, innovative hydrogen stocks in the marketplace, to capture the investment potential in clean energy. It provides diversified access to this disruptive and innovative space, which has the potential to transform energy production and use towards a more sustainable, decarbonized, greener future.

The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance current to the most recent month-end can be obtained by calling 833.333.9383. Short term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the fund’s future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns. Market price is the price at which shares in the ETF can be brought or sold on the exchanges during trading hours, while the net asset value (NAV) represents the value of each share’s portion of the fund’s underlying assets and cash at the end of the trading day.
