Top & Bottom 5 ETFs by Weekly Performance
Beyond JSTC, Tema Durable Quality ETF (TOLL) and Amana Equity Income ETF (AMEI) rounded out the top performers with gains of 2.05% and 1.99%, respectively. On the downside, Baillie Gifford Long Term Global Growth ETF (BGGG) fell 5.11%, while Moonvest ETF (MNVT) declined 3.81%.
