Global X will unleash a new ETF today
basically based on the ASX top 300 ( similar to VAS .. i hold VAS )
i am still wading through the ( sparse ) details
but spotted this difference
INDEX
FTSE Australia 300 Index (in this Product Supplement, the Index)
This index comprises the 300 largest companies within the eligible universe when ranked by full market capitalisation.
The Index is maintained by FTSE Russell, a subsidiary of the London Stock Exchange Group.
The Index was not created by, and is not managed by, a Related Body Corporate of the Responsible Entity.The methodology employed by FTSE Russell in calculating the Index can be found at: https://www.lseg.com/en/ftse-russell.
Investors should review the Index Methodology on the FTSE Russell website prior to making an investment.
this is NOT the S&P index ASX top 300 and given flagged changes to the S&P 300 methodology in late September 2025 , may be a deciding difference ( positively or negatively )
Comparison to other ASX Benchmarks. Investors should understand the difference between the exposure to ASX securities generated by the Index and other ASX benchmark indices which may contain more or less constituents and have different allocation methodologies .
