Global X’s Sixth Annual Research Report Examines Tech-Driven Investment Opportunities

“Charting Disruption” explores forces reshaping the global economy including defense, energy, infrastructure, and commodities

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global X Management Company LLC (“Global X”), the New York-based provider of exchange-traded funds (ETFs), today announced the launch of its 2027 thematic outlook. “Charting Disruption” is its annual flagship research report that explores the ways in which emerging technologies are transforming industries, creating new markets, and unleashing massive investment that impacts broad swaths of the global economy.

This year’s report covers the following topics:

• Artificial intelligence (AI): How the shift from infrastructure build-out to broader adoption could create opportunities across software, robotics, and healthcare.
• Defense and space tech: How geopolitical priorities and advances in technology are reshaping defense systems and space technology capabilities.
• Infrastructure and automation: How efforts to expand domestic manufacturing are driving demand for infrastructure and advanced robotics.
• Energy: What rising electricity demand means for power generation, energy storage, and grid investment.
• Critical resources: How demand for essential minerals and water could expose supply constraints and create opportunities across the companies securing these resources.

“The scale of investment required to support the adoption of disruptive technologies is becoming difficult to overstate,” said Arelis Agosto, Director of Product Research and Strategy at Global X. “Infrastructure remains essential, but the longer-term opportunity will also depend on which companies can turn increasingly capable and affordable tech, including AI, into products, services, and measurable productivity gains.”

Produced by Global X’s Research Team, this is the sixth annual report that examines how compelling investable opportunities are interconnected and mutually reinforcing.
