iShares Copper Miners

ETF description

This ETF invests in companies around the world whose main business is exploring for, mining or refining copper. It aims to follow the performance of an index made up of firms with significant ties to the copper‑industry.

This ETF might appeal to an investor who is comfortable investing in a more specialised area of the market and who understands that sector‑specific funds tend to move more in value than broadly diversified funds.
