Investors looking to align their portfolios with their political beliefs have found a way to do so through the Point Bridge America First ETF (MAGA) and the Democratic Large Cap Core ETF (DEMZ). These exchange-traded funds offer a unique opportunity for politically-minded individuals to invest in companies that support their preferred political party.
Since its launch in November 2020, the DEMZ fund has outperformed the MAGA fund and the S&P 500. With a focus on companies that predominantly donate to Democratic causes and candidates, DEMZ has seen a return of 78.3% since inception, compared to 76.6% for MAGA over the same time period.
One of the key factors driving DEMZ’s outperformance is its heavy concentration in mega-cap technology stocks. With top holdings including Nvidia, Apple, and Microsoft, DEMZ has benefited from the strong performance of the tech sector. In contrast, MAGA is more heavily invested in industrial, financial, and energy stocks.
Over the past year, DEMZ has seen a 30% gain compared to 18% for MAGA, further solidifying its lead in performance. Additionally, DEMZ has attracted more assets under management, with $36 million invested in the fund compared to $21 million for MAGA.
For investors looking to make a statement with their investments, the DEMZ and MAGA ETFs offer a unique opportunity to align their portfolios with their political beliefs while potentially seeing strong returns.
