Our read on IDRV
BBlackRock's whole-chain take on electric and autonomous driving: carmakers, battery suppliers and the chip and software firms steering them, roughly 50 names worldwide, at a fee below most of its EV peers.
The fund seeks to track an index of global companies benefiting from innovation and growth in electric vehicles, battery technologies, and autonomous driving, providing exposure across the EV value chain.
Why people hold it
- 0.48% a year, meaningfully under the median fee in its EV and battery cohort.
- Buys the whole value chain, not just the badge on the hood: EV makers, battery technology and autonomous-driving tech, across developed and emerging markets.ishares.com
- Index-tracking, rules-based, and running since 2019 on iShares plumbing, which is a long track record for a theme this young.
- Rates in the upper half of its EV and battery peer group on our review, ahead of pricier rivals like DRIV and BATT.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded next to the household-name thematic funds, so bid-ask spreads deserve a look before you place an order.
- About 50 stocks tied to one theme. When the EV cycle turns, there is nowhere in the portfolio to hide.
- Growth-oriented, not an income sleeve: distributions land annually or semiannually, and global holdings bring currency swings along for the ride.
