The index underlying the Amplify Video Game Leaders ETF (GAMR) has risen nearly 1% in October to date.

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) and Meta Platforms, Inc. (META) powered a September gain for the gaming index behind the Amplify Video Game Leaders ETF (GAMR). The VettaFi Video Game Leaders Index rose 2.8% for the month, while a quarterly rebalance added two Japanese game makers.
