XIGV tracks an index of the largest Nasdaq-listed non-financial companies. It excludes businesses that derive at least 50% of their revenue from software-related activities, including application software, cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, engineering and data platforms, and IT services. The portfolio uses a market capitalization-weighted methodology with issuer caps to help limit concentration and is reconstituted and rebalanced semi-annually. The fund is designed to provide exposure to the non-software segment of the US technology sector.

The new offerings — the Defiance US 100 Tech AI Moat ETF (NASDAQ:AIX) and the Defiance US 100 Tech Ex Software ETF (BATS:XIGV) — both draw from the Nasdaq-100 universe but take distinct approaches to identifying potential AI beneficiaries.
MIAMI, June 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Defiance ETFs, a leader in thematic and leveraged exchange-traded funds, today announced the launch of the Defiance US 100 Tech Ex Software ETF (Cboe: XIGV) , the first U.S. ETF designed to target the Nasdaq-100 while systematically screening out the software industry.
