This index encompasses a broad range of stocks from large, mid-size, and small U.S. companies within the information technology sector, classified under the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS). The investment strategy of the company is centered around an indexing approach, where it strives to invest all of its assets directly into the stocks constituting the index.
