International equities have continued to gain steam over the past several weeks. The iShares MSCI ACWI ex US ETF (ACWX), our broad international proxy, has gained 3.87% over the past 30 days, outpacing the S&P 500 Index (SPX), which has returned 2.85% over the same time frame (through 9/2/25). Both areas have shown improvement, demonstrating the risk-on posture across the global equity landscape. However, foreign stocks seem to be gaining more near-term momentum.

This is even more true when looking at individual companies within international markets. The AdvisorShares Nasdaq Dorsey Wright ADR ETF (AADR) is one way to gain exposure to a more focused list of foreign stocks that are still listed domestically in US markets. Over the past 30 days, AADR has gained 5.97%, outpacing both ACWX and SPX (through 9/2/25).

 This actively managed fund looks to maintain exposure to a refined list of ADRs that have demonstrated the most relative strength when stacked up against their peers. There is a sector overlay, allowing the strategy to maintain exposure to the strongest industry groups. There are no parameters around developed vs. emerging market exposure, allowing the fund to remain flexible in a swiftly changing global landscape. A full breakdown of the investment process can be found below:

The AdvisorShares Nasdaq Dorsey Wright ADR ETF (AADR) maintains a robust 5.57 technical fund score (out of 6 possible points). This highlights the favorable trend characteristics, relative strength against the market, and relative strength against its peers, which all factor into the scoring mechanism. AADR gave a second consecutive buy signal on its default chart last month before climbing to a new all-time high at the end of August at $84. Since then, the fund has retracted to a more actionable position in the low $80s, highlighting a potential buying opportunity. Near-term support can be seen initially at $77 and $76.
