What does the AUDS ASX ETF invest in?

AUDS invests in cash and cash equivalents and buys Australian dollar/US dollar futures contracts. The idea is that buying these futures typically generates a positive return when the Australian dollar strengthens relative to the US dollar, and a negative return when the Australian dollar weakens relative to the US dollar. So, an investor would expect to profit from the AUDS ETF when the AUD/USD exchange rate goes up.

What do investors use the AUDS ETF for?

This ETF could be used by investors to gain magnified exposure to a strengthening Australian dollar against that of the US. Gearing magnifies gains and losses and typically involves higher levels of volatility, so it may not be a suitable strategy for all investors.
