iShares Global Consumer Staples ETF

KXI tracks a market-cap-weighted index of global consumer staples companies, drawn from 1,200 global stocks selected by S&P.

However, the Global Consumer Staples fund has a high allocation to U.S. equities and some expensive retail stocks in particular, which limits its appeal to a degree.
