Understanding Thematic ETFs vs. Core ETFs

Thematic ETFs are distinct from core ETFs, focusing on specific trends or industries, in contrast to broad market exposure. While core ETFs offer diversified, cost-effective exposure to various stocks, thematic ETFs cater to specific investment themes like clean energy or AI.
