VanEck Vectors Rare Earth/Strategic Metals ETF
REMX is an exchange-traded fund from VanEck that offers targeted, index-based exposure to companies involved in rare earth and strategic metals. These materials — including rare earth elements, critical minerals and speciality metals — are used in technologies such as electric vehicles, wind turbines, consumer electronics and defence systems, so the ETF can act as a thematic way for investors to participate in those supply chains. REMX holds equity securities of miners, processors and equipment makers; as a commodity-linked equity ETF it tends to be more volatile than broad-market funds and can be influenced by metal prices, geopolitical developments and policy changes. Holdings may be concentrated by region or company and liquidity can vary. Investors might consider REMX for thematic or portfolio diversification reasons, but should weigh the higher cyclical and regulatory risks. This information is educational and not personalised financial advice; values can fall as well as rise.

Global demand drivers
Technologies like EVs, renewables and defence systems drive demand for critical minerals, which can benefit companies in the supply chain — though demand and prices can fluctuate.
Thematic, equity exposure
REMX provides equity-based access to miners and processors rather than direct commodity ownership, meaning returns reflect corporate performance as well as metal price movements.
Higher volatility risk
Concentrated holdings and commodity-linked cycles can lead to sharp moves; suitable as a satellite exposure after assessing your risk tolerance and investment horizon.
