ETF report Portfolio Forecast Vaneck and Xtrackers Fund Q1.2026

MarketVector and STOXX will officially announce the component results of the Vietnam Local Index and the STOXX Vietnam Total Market Liquid Index on March 14, 2026, with the changes taking effect on March 23, 2026. These two indices are currently replicated by the VanEck Vietnam ETF (AUM: USD 658 million) and the Xtrackers Vietnam Swap (AUM: USD 395 million). Key changes in this review compared to the most recent published portfolio are as follows:

In the Q1 2026 review, the Vietnam Local Index is expected to add VPL to its constituent basket after meeting the screening criteria. Meanwhile, the STOXX Vietnam Total Market Liquid Index is expected to remove DCM and HSG due to violations of the relative average trading value requirement, as they no longer rank within the top 90% of average daily trading value across the entire Vietnam Total Market universe.

In terms of weighting, VIC is expected to see the most significant reduction. Its current weight in the ETF portfolio exceeds the limit cap and therefore must be adjusted downward to comply with the index weighting limit.

Regarding the portfolio rebalancing activities of the related ETFs, the VanEck Vietnam ETF is expected to record a substantial net sell of VIC (–VND 143 billion) and a strong net buy of VPL (+VND 414 billion). At the same time, the Xtrackers Vietnam Swap is projected to post a significant net buy of VHM (+VND 465 billion) while also executing a substantial net sell of VIC (–VND 964 billion).
