Eleven new exchange-traded funds began trading in the U.S. the week of Aug. 27–Sept. 3, 2026. Most listings were on NYSE Arca, while one debuted on Nasdaq.

The new funds were Raub Brock Dividend Growth ETF (HQDG), PGIM Jennison Small-Mid Cap Core Equity ETF (PJSM), T. Rowe Price Securitized Income ETF (TSCZ), Defiance China Robotics ETF (CROB), State Street SPDR UC Investments 90/10 Endowment Strategy Index ETF (UCBG), Integrity Dividend Harvest ETF (DIVH), XFUNDS Large Cap Income ETF (VOOY), Defiance KSM Israel 120 ETF (ISRL), Miller Value Partners Appreciation ETF (MVPA), Mast HedgeIndex Managed Futures Strategy ETF (HXF) and Yorkville America MANGOS Plus Index ETF (FRUT).

Several of the launches target income-oriented investors. HQDG focuses on dividend growth, VOOY targets large-cap income, and DIVH employs dividend-harvesting techniques. TSCZ seeks exposure to securitized assets such as mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. UCBG tracks an index designed to reflect a 90/10 endowment allocation, combining equities with other asset classes.

Thematic and regional exposures were added as well. CROB targets companies involved in robotics and automation in China. ISRL follows the KSM Israel 120 index to provide access to Israeli-listed companies. PJSM offers small- and mid-cap core equity exposure, while MVPA provides a value-oriented equity approach.

Alternative and commodity-linked strategies arrived with HXF, which links to a managed futures strategy via the HedgeIndex framework, and FRUT, which follows the MANGOS Plus Index for commodity-related index exposure.

Issuers on the list include major asset managers such as T. Rowe Price, State Street and PGIM Jennison, along with independent and specialist firms Raub Brock, Defiance, Integrity, XFUNDS, Miller Value Partners, Mast and Yorkville America. Separate ETF listings in Canadian and other global markets for the same week were recorded and are tracked separately.
