This week the company filed with the SEC plans outlining two new funds focusing on health-care and fitness companies, the "health-lifestyle" ETF will focus on 30-40 companies that promote diet, nutrition, exercise and other preventative measures. Other filings included ETFs that focusing on Brazil, Israel, China among other countries and seven with a real estate focus, reports Ian Salisbury for The Wall Street Journal. In addition to these, XShares recently filed for a family of ETFs targeting companies based on their relationships with the U.S. states and a family that resembles life-cycle mutual funds.
