XAD seeks to provide long-term capital growth by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance, net of expenses, of an Index selected at the discretion of BlackRock Canada that is designed to measure the performance of U.S. companies in the aerospace & defense sector, as determined by the Index Provider. XAD currently seeks to replicate the performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Select Aerospace & Defense Index.
XAD's current principal investment strategy is to employ a Replicating Strategy. In addition to or as an alternative to this strategy, XAD may also invest by employing a Sampling Strategy, by investing in one or more iShares ETFs and/or through the use of derivatives. More information on these investment strategies and additional investment strategies that may be used by BlackRock Canada and/or BTC in managing this iShares Fund can be found under the heading Investment Strategies .
