Our read on BATT
CMost EV funds buy the carmakers. BATT buys the battery, tracking a global index of roughly 50 lithium and battery-technology companies. It has been running since 2018 and charges less than the typical fund in its category.
The Fund seeks to track the EQM Lithium & Battery Technology Index before fees and expenses through passive indexing; it normally invests at least 80% of net assets in securities comprising the Index.
Why people hold it
- The battery-chain purist. Where category peers like DRIV, IDRV and FDRV lean on autonomous driving and vehicle makers, BATT's index is built around lithium and battery technology itself.amplifyetfs.com
- 0.59% a year, below the 0.68% median for EV and battery funds. On a theme with this much swing, a lower annual toll is one of the few things you control.
- Simple plumbing: a passive 1940 Act fund that normally keeps at least 80% of net assets in the securities of the EQM Lithium & Battery Technology Index. What is in the index is what you own.amplifyetfs.com
- Trading since 2018, so the battery theme's booms and busts are already on its tape rather than in a backtest.
Worth knowing
- Cheaper doors into electrification exist: FDRV charges 0.39% and IBAT 0.47%, though each defines the theme differently.
- About 50 stocks bolted to one supply chain. Lithium price swings or a single cell maker's bad quarter show up in the fund quickly.
- The mandate is global, so foreign-market and currency exposure comes with it. Payouts are occasional (annual or semiannual), not an income stream.
