Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

EXICiShares Global Industrials ETF

PSCICInvesco S&P SmallCap Industrials ETF

In short

EXI Most industrials ETFs stop at the US border. EXI has tracked a global industrials index since 2006, spreading roughly 220 machinery, aerospace and transport names across developed markets.

PSCI Industrials ETFs usually mean large-cap machinery and aerospace. PSCI works the other end of the market: about 100 small US industrial companies from the S&P SmallCap 600, indexed the same way since 2010.

Stated mandate

EXI The fund seeks to track an index representing global equities in the industrials sector.

PSCI The fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the investment results of the S&P SmallCap 600 Capped Industrials Index.

Why people hold it

  • EXI Global by design: the S&P Global 1200 Industrials Capped Index reaches past US factories into Europe and Asia in a single ticket.ishares.com
  • It follows the capped version of the index, so no single conglomerate can dominate a basket of about 220 companies.ishares.com
  • Live since 2006, through the financial crisis, trade fights and supply-chain chaos, and now a multi-billion-dollar iShares fund.
  • PSCI Costs 0.29% a year, under the typical industrials sector fund and less than Invesco's own equal-weight RSPN at 0.40%.
  • A small-cap industrials sleeve in one ticker: about 100 names set by an S&P index, not by a stock picker.
  • Has followed the S&P SmallCap 600 Capped Industrials Index closely since its 2010 launch, so the index is a good read on the fund.
  • Pays out quarterly, so income arrives on a set schedule rather than in lumps.

Worth knowing

  • EXI The 0.38% fee sits at the industrials group's midpoint, but US-only rivals such as XLI (0.08%) and VIS (0.09%) charge a fraction of it.
  • Overseas holdings pull currency moves and foreign market hours into the price, a layer domestic industrials funds skip.ishares.com
  • Moderately traded rather than heavily, so spreads can run wider than the busiest sector funds, and cash goes out annually or semiannually, not monthly.
  • PSCI One of the less traded funds in the industrials group and one of the smaller ones, so spreads can run wider than the category heavyweights.
  • Small companies in a single cyclical sector move harder in both directions than broad large-cap industrials funds.
  • XLI (0.08%) and VIS (0.09%) charge less, but they hold large-cap industrials, not the small-cap end PSCI covers.
