NYSE Texas Lists First ETFs With Strive Asset Management

NYSE Texas is launching its first exchange-traded funds (ETFs) with Strive Asset Management, with 13 funds listed on the Dallas-headquartered exchange and dual-listed by Strive. The funds include the Strive International Developed Markets ETF, Strive Mid-Cap ETF, and Strive U.S. Energy ETF, among others. NYSE Texas is growing as a financial hub, with plans to launch in early 2026 and BlackRock's iShares Texas Equity ETF already launched in June.

NYSE Texas, the Dallas-headquartered exchange, has taken a significant step forward in its growth as a financial hub by listing its first exchange-traded funds (ETFs). On Thursday, the NYSE announced that 13 ETFs from Strive Asset Management will be dual-listed on NYSE Texas, with the funds continuing to trade on the NYSE [1].

The funds, which cover a broad range of sectors and asset classes, include the Strive International Developed Markets ETF (STXI), Strive Mid-Cap ETF (STXM), and Strive U.S. Energy ETF (DRLL), among others [1]. This move is part of NYSE Texas's strategy to support the capital market community emanating from the state of Texas and to provide investors with more ways to invest in the growing financial hub [1].

The launch of these ETFs is a testament to the growing importance of Texas in the financial sector. In February, the NYSE announced plans to relocate its Chicago operations to Dallas, citing the state's growing number of NYSE listings and pro-business landscape [1]. Furthermore, the Texas stock exchange is planning to launch in early 2026, as more financial firms establish new operations in the state [2].

This development is also a sign of the growing ETF market in Texas. BlackRock's iShares Texas Equity ETF (TEXN), which launched in June, has already amassed $12.32 million in assets under management (AUM) [1]. The success of TEXN indicates a strong appetite among investors for Texas-focused ETFs.

Strive Asset Management, the issuer of these ETFs, is also optimistic about the potential of NYSE Texas. "At Strive, we believe capital markets thrive when they prioritize innovation, meritocracy, and maximizing shareholder value," said Matt Cole, CEO at Strive [1]. "That's what's happening with NYSE Texas, and we're proud to be the first ETF issuer listed on the exchange."

The 13 Strive ETFs will continue their existing primary listing on NYSE, providing investors with a seamless trading experience. For further information on NYSE Texas, please visit [https://www.nyse.com/markets/nyse-texas](https://www.nyse.com/markets/nyse-texas).
