Our read on KXI

ETF.net Research

BStaples with a passport. KXI tracks a capped index of global consumer staples, so the coffee, detergent and toothpaste makers it holds are listed outside the US as well as in it.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks to follow an index of global equities in the consumer staples sector, providing diversified access to companies producing essential products such as food and household items.

Why people hold it

  1. 01Its index is global, so consumer staples companies listed outside the US sit alongside the familiar American giants.
  2. 02Trading since 2006 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, it is a long-established way to own staples worldwide in one ticker.
  3. 03Costs 0.38% a year, a shade under the typical expense ratio in its consumer staples cohort.
  4. 04Roughly 90 companies, held through a capped index that limits how big any single name can get inside the basket.

Worth knowing

  1. 01Cheap, not cheapest: US-only staples funds such as XLP (0.08%) and VDC (0.09%) charge a fraction of KXI's 0.38%.
  2. 02Holdings priced in foreign currencies mean exchange-rate moves feed into results alongside the share prices themselves.
  3. 03Moderately traded rather than one of the busiest tickers in the category, so bid-ask spreads are worth a glance before ordering.
