Global X suggests that the fish trade is likely to increase in coming years as diets around the world continue to add more protein. This young fund tracks an index of companies “engaged in commercial fishing, fish farming, fish processing, or the marketing and sale of fish and fish products.” Some of the fund’s holdings have already been reeling in big gains, with top holding Toyo Suisan Kaisha, a Japanese food manufacturer, up 15 percent over the last year.
