EWN tracks a market-cap-weighted index of Dutch firms.

EWN has outperformed European peers and global markets this year, but we would urge some caution going forward. Netherlands GDP growth in Q1 was adversely affected by the manufacturing sector and its FY forecasts are expected to lag the Euro area. Housing affordability continues to be a source of concern, with house price growth poised to stay elevated through much of this year.

EWN: A Few Reasons Not To Get Carried Away

The iShares MSCI Netherlands ETF (EWN) offers exposure to Dutch securities across market caps, but faces challenges due to sluggish economic growth, uncertainty around interest rates, and political gridlock. EWN is a tech-heavy ETF, with around a third of its assets in the technology sector, and a large holding in semiconductor giant ASML. While EWN has delivered strong year-to-date returns in 2024, it also exhibits higher volatility compared to other European ETFs, making it a riskier play in an uncertain economic environment.

The iShares MSCI Netherlands ETF has done reasonably well since its inception 27 years back. The macro picture looks rather underwhelming at this juncture. EWN is currently trading at a premium compared to other country-specific ETFs from Europe's top 5 economies, and technically, there is limited incentive to get on board.

House price growth in the eurozone is at its highest since 2006 as housing markets were supported by a limited impact of the pandemic on household finances, rising savings, historically low-interest rates, favorable financing conditions, and changing preferences. The improved macroprudential framework in Europe, increased supply of housing, and bottoming out of interest rates are expected to ease the upward pressures on price growth.
