Moativated Investing – A History of Outperformance. Long-term outperformance defines the track record of Morningstar’s success in identifying quality ”moat” companies with sustainable competitive advantages that are also trading at attractive valuations. Since its live inception in 2007, the Morningstar® Wide Moat Focus IndexSM has outperformed the S&P 500® Index by more than four percentage points each year, as shown in the chart below.

Morningstar’s Economic Moat Rating

Morningstar first began rating companies in 2002 according to the strength and longevity of their competitive advantages. Nearly fifteen years later, Morningstar’s equity research process remains rooted in the core belief that quality companies positioned to maintain one or more competitive advantages well into the future are best positioned for long-term success. The quality of these companies is reflected in Morningstar’s Economic Moat Rating.

Morningstar’s unique Economic Moat Rating system helps investors identify how likely a company is to keep competitors at bay for an extended period. The highest rating, a wide economic moat, signifies Morningstar’s belief that the company can sustain its competitive advantage for at least 20 years into the future, which is no small feat in today’s ultra-competitive environment.

Fair Value Represents A Company’s Long-Term Intrinsic Value

Another key component to Morningstar’s moat-investing equity research approach is its valuation process. Morningstar equity analysts assign a fair value estimate to each company based on how much cash it believes the company may generate in the future. The fair value represents a company’s long-term intrinsic value. Of course, stocks may trade above or below the company’s underlying fair value. The key is to identify those companies that are attractively priced at the time of investment.

VanEck VectorsTM Morningstar Wide Moat ETF (MOAT) is the only U.S. ETF that seeks to track the Morningstar® Wide Moat Focus IndexSM (the ”Index”), a benchmark that combines Morningstar’s measure of quality with their valuation framework. The Index’s approach to identifying U.S. companies with wide economic moats that are attractively priced has resulted in long-term outperformance versus the broader U.S. equity market, and provided a unique way for investors to invest in quality companies.

Timmer och skogar är garanter för att mildra klimatförändringarna och en naturlig träkälla. Skogarna täcker stora landområden, utgör en oumbärlig åtgärd för att minska koldioxidutsläppen och är de främsta producenterna av syre. Det finns även börshandlade fonder för den som vill investera i skogen.

Detta ger möjligheter för företag som äger skog eller är inblandade i skogsskötseln. Träförädlingsindustrin är också en del av denna trend, liksom börsnoterade skogsfonder i form av REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts). Dessa företag kan användas för att skapa ett index.

I den här investeringsguiden hittar du alla ETFer som gör att du kan investera i skogen. För närvarande finns det ett index tillgängligt spårat av två olika ETFer som båda har en årlig förvaltningskostnad på 0,65 procent.

Skogs-ETFer i jämförelse

När man väljer en ETF för skogsbruk bör man överväga flera andra faktorer utöver metodiken för det underliggande indexet och prestanda för en ETF.

Global X Telemedicine & Digital Health UCITS ETF Dist GBP (EDOG ETF) med ISIN IE00BLR6QC17, försöker följa indexet Solactive Telemedicine & Digital Health. Solactive Telemedicine & Digital Health-index spårar företag över hela världen som är verksamma inom området telemedicin och digital hälsa.

Den börshandlade fondens TER (total cost ratio) uppgår till 0,68 % p.a. Global X Telemedicine & Digital Health UCITS ETF Dist GBP är den billigaste ETF som följer Solactive Telemedicine & Digital Health-index. ETFen replikerar det underliggande indexets prestanda genom fullständig replikering (köper alla indexbeståndsdelar). Utdelningarna i ETFen delas ut till investerarna (halvårsvis).

Global X Telemedicine & Digital Health UCITS ETF Dist GBP är en mycket liten ETF med tillgångar på 0 miljoner euro under förvaltning. Denna ETF lanserades den 17 december 2020 och har sin hemvist i Irland.

Skäl att överväga EDOG

Hög tillväxtpotential: Den globala telemedicinmarknaden ökade med 35 % från 2019 till 2020 och översteg 55 miljarder dollar. Prognoser tyder på att marknaden kan nå nästan 300 miljarder dollar år 2028 (Källa: ”Telemedicine Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Component” Grand View Research, februari 2021).

Strukturella medvindar: Under 2019 saknade uppskattningsvis hälften av världens befolkning nödvändig hälsovård. När mer underbetjänade marknader får tillgång till bredband erbjuder telemedicin stora möjligheter att överbrygga klyftan (Källa: World Economic Forum).

Nya konsumentinställningar: Pandemin ökade antagandet av digitala hälsotjänster, med många vänder sig till telemedicin för första gången, vilket påskyndade temats räckvidd.

Handla EDOG ETF

Global X Telemedicine & Digital Health UCITS ETF Dist GBP (EDOG ETF) är en börshandlad fond (ETF) som handlas på London Stock Exchange.

London Stock Exchange är en marknad som få svenska banker och nätmäklare erbjuder access till, men DEGIRO gör det.

The Dogecoin story: The emerging “intrinsic value”

Publicerad

19 timmar sedan

27 april, 2025

Redaktionen

Like Bitcoin, Dogecoin uses a proof-of-work (PoW) consensus mechanism but runs on its own blockchain, originally forked from Litecoin. It uses the Scrypt hashing algorithm, which is less resource-intensive than Bitcoin’s SHA-256, making mining more accessible to everyday users with consumer-grade hardware. Due to merged mining with Litecoin, Dogecoin benefits from shared infrastructure, with hashpower recently reaching all-time highs of 2.7 petahashes (quadrillion hashes) per second, making the network increasingly difficult to attack.

Dogecoin’s design is built for speed and utility, has no maximum supply, and confirms blocks every minute (10x faster than Bitcoin). Moreover, it maintains ultra-low transaction fees, which is ideal for tipping, microtransactions, and everyday use.

More than a meme

Although its supply is technically unlimited, Dogecoin’s issuance model is clear and predictable. Approximately 10,000 DOGE are mined every minute, adding up to around 5.25 billion new tokens each year. As the supply base expands, this fixed issuance creates a natural disinflationary trend that has cut nearly in half over the past decade while ensuring network security through consistent miner rewards.

Dogecoin’s technology fosters an aligned ecosystem between users and miners. With sustainable economic incentives, it acts as a kind of “retail Bitcoin”, built not just for hoarding but for real-world use, too.

While Dogecoin began as a lighthearted experiment, its evolution has proven it to be far more than a meme. Thanks to its speed, low fees, and strong community backing, Dogecoin has grown into a functional digital currency with a range of real-world use cases. From payments and merchant adoption to infrastructure development and charitable giving, Dogecoin continues to demonstrate its staying power as a practical and accessible tool in the broader crypto ecosystem.

Dogecoin as a payment tool

Dogecoin has transformed into a widely accepted digital currency, embraced by major brands like Tesla, AMC, Newegg, and the Dallas Mavericks. With fast transaction speeds and low fees, even amid surging transaction volumes, it has become a practical option for everyday payments. Crypto payment processors like BitPay have further expanded its reach, enabling thousands of merchants worldwide to accept DOGE. Most recently, The Open House Group, a prominent Tokyo Stock Exchange-listed real estate firm, added Dogecoin to its supported list, making it one of the few digital assets accepted for property transactions.

Enhancing Dogecoin’s payment infrastructure

Initiatives like Dogebox and GigaWallet are simplifying DOGE integration for businesses, while its scaling solution, Laika, is making meaningful progress in improving transaction speed and reducing costs.

Meanwhile, RadioDoge is working to expand access by enabling offline transactions in remote regions through low-cost radio and Starlink technology, advancing global crypto inclusion. A rumored integration with Elon Musk’s X platform could extend Dogecoin’s utility across digital tipping and commerce. These efforts collectively reinforce Dogecoin’s growing relevance in real-world payments and its potential as a frictionless, decentralized transaction layer.

Do Only Good Every Day

As we’ve seen, community drives memecoins, and Dogecoin’s community shines the brightest. This global network not only thrives on memes but also channels that energy into social good. From funding clean water in Kenya to sending Jamaica’s Bobsled Team to the Olympics and raising over $1 million for Ukraine relief, DOGE’s community transforms internet culture into real-world impact. Low fees and fast transactions make it a favorite for grassroots giving, showing a coin born as a joke can leave a lasting legacy. Dogecoin is more than a digital asset—it’s a movement powered by a community that believes in doing good every day.
