iShares MSCI Italy ETF

EWI tracks a market-cap-weighted index of Italian companies excluding small-caps. It covers the top 85% of Italian companies by market cap.

The iShares MSCI Italy ETF offers exposure to Italy's market, benefiting from potential cheaper energy if the Ukraine-Russia war ends. EWI's top sectors—financials, consumer cyclical, utilities, and industrials—stand to gain from reduced energy costs, boosting corporate profitability. Key stocks in EWI like UniCredit, Ferrari, and ENI are well-managed and positioned for growth, enhancing the ETF's appeal.

US equities have outperformed the rest of the world for a long time now. While the US is up 58% on a total return basis during the current bull market, the rest of the world is up 13.5 percentage points less at +44.5%. Looking at the international dividend ETF over a longer time frame, over the last five years, it's up 20.6% in price and more than double that on a total return basis.

Highest And Lowest Country ETF Dividend Yields

iShares MSCI Italy ETF offers investors exposure to the Italian stock market through a diverse mix of mid and large-cap companies. The EWI ETF's portfolio includes industry giants like UniCredit, ENEL, Ferrari, Intesa Sanpaolo, and Stellantis, providing broad exposure to various sectors. EWI's sector composition highlights strengths in Financials, Consumer Discretionary, Utilities, Energy, Industrials, and Healthcare, showcasing Italy's economic diversity.

EWI: A Great Way To Visit Italy (From Your Portfolio)

EWI tracks MSCI Italy Index with lackluster returns. EWI has high exposure to cyclical sectors, but low exposure to technology sector. EWI's fund price has a high correlation to ECB's rate policy.

EWI: High Exposure To Cyclicals, And Low Exposure To Technology

Equities here in the US have gotten off to a weak start this month, with the S&P 500 down modestly over the past couple of sessions. The US-traded ETF that tracks Mexican stocks is down 8.3% month-to-date and 12.3% year-to-date.

EM Election Madness

EWI offers an attractive valuation and dividend yield but faces economic headwinds in Italy and many of its trading partners in the EU. Italy's ability to secure further EU recovery funding hinges on completing agreed milestones, which could impact economic progress if delayed. A potential ECB rate cut could hurt EWI's value tilt, one of the key characteristics of the fund.

A principal reason to brace ourselves for another round of the Italian debt crisis is that all of the factors that might allow that country to reduce its debt burden are now moving in the wrong direction. Far from producing a primary budget surplus, the disappointing Italian budget presented this week by the Meloni government implies a meaningful primary budget deficit.

Unpleasant Italian Debt Arithmetic

Italian stocks have performed well this year and still remain undervalued compared to other European markets. We have concerns about the country's short- and medium-term growth prospects. Italy is heavily reliant on EU funding which in turn necessitates the achievement of certain policies and targets which the country has largely failed to achieve.

EWI: The Headwinds Have Picked Up

Key indicators suggest the iShares MSCI Italy ETF's surge near 45% year-over-year might continue. Regional risk premiums are among the best in Europe. The EWI ETF has a value-centric investment approach, which could benefit in a "higher for longer" interest rate environment.

The Eurozone economy has encountered a setback, with the first-quarter GDP showing an unexpected contraction. As economists express their pessimism, concerns rise over the region's future performance.

Italy's latest production data raised alarm bells. While some concern is warranted, resilience elsewhere in the economy, most notably services, provides some welcome offset. Despite this year's outperformance, the iShares MSCI Italy ETF continues to trade at undemanding valuations.

The iShares MSCI Italy ETF is priced at a relative discount to its Euro peers despite the country's improving fundamentals. While the portfolio is concentrated, the quality and defensiveness of its single-stock holdings leave the fund well-positioned to navigate the cycles.

EWI: A Quality, Defensive Portfolio To Ride The Italian Momentum

Italy's growth prospects are one of the weakest in Europe, and inflationary pressures are unlikely to dissipate anytime soon. Public finances remain under pressure, and instability within the ruling coalition could cause volatility.

iShares MSCI Italy ETF: Nothing To Get Excited About

EWI represents the largest Italian businesses, but the exposure of Italy to gas and reliance on discretionary markets is not to our taste. The new government is also not a fan of some of the fiscal stabilizers introduced by the M5S party previously in power.

Italy is facing an existential crisis that threatens the fate of the entire European Union. The 2022 Italian Crisis is a toxic cocktail of excessive debt, poor demographics, and political instability.

EWI gives exposure to the Italian economy, which means some solid exposures in financials and utilities. The bigger issues are in consumer discretionary where exposures to cars could be an issue in a recession.

House price growth in the eurozone is at its highest since 2006 as housing markets were supported by a limited impact of the pandemic on household finances, rising savings, historically low-interest rates, favorable financing conditions, and changing preferences. The improved macroprudential framework in Europe, increased supply of housing, and bottoming out of interest rates are expected to ease the upward pressures on price growth.
