FBOTBFidelity Disruptive Automation ETF

FDIFBFidelity Disruptors ETF

In short

FBOT Most robotics funds hand the job to an index. FBOT hands it to Fidelity's analysts: about 50 global picks spanning industrial robots, machine vision, autonomous driving and 3D printing, for 0.50% a year.

FDIF Fidelity's disruption bet, aimed at companies remaking work through automation. It charges 0.50% where the typical robotics-theme fund asks 0.65%, and it has been running since 2020. The trade-off: it trades quietly.

Stated mandate

FBOT The fund seeks long-term capital growth by normally investing at least 80% of its assets in securities of disruptive automation companies.

FDIF The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in companies involved in disruptive automation.

Why people hold it

FBOT Fidelity's analysts pick the names, and the fund's definition of automation runs from robotics and machine vision to autonomous driving, EVs and 3D printing.sec.gov
At 0.50% a year it undercuts the typical robotics and automation fund, and it concentrates in about 50 stocks rather than spreading the theme thin.
Born a 2020 Fidelity mutual fund, converted to an ETF in 2023, so there is real live history behind the strategy and holdings posted daily.fidelity.com
One of the stronger builds in the robotics and automation group on cost, portfolio construction and risk profile.

FDIF Charges 0.50% a year against a 0.65% median for its robotics and automation peer group. Cheap is rare in thematic land.
The portfolio hews closely to the prospectus mandate: companies involved in disruptive automation, pursued for long-term capital appreciation. Little theme drift.
Sits in the upper tier of its robotics and automation cohort, and its risk profile reads calmer than much of a theme built on moonshots.
Pays out quarterly, which is more cadence than most growth-themed funds bother with.

Worth knowing

FBOT Thinly traded next to the giant thematic funds, so bid-ask spreads and order size matter more here.
Two peers charge less: BOTT at 0.35% and IBOT at 0.47%.
No index to fall back on. Results ride on the manager's calls, and the theme can reach into any sector, so the fund can behave unlike broad tech.sec.gov

FDIF Thinly traded with a modest asset base. Spreads can run wider than the theme's household names, and size limits how much the fund gets talked about.
Portfolio construction is the weakest link in the package: a narrow, concentrated book where individual names carry real weight.
Fidelity's own FBOT sits in the same cohort at the same 0.50% fee, and BOTT undercuts both at 0.35%. Worth knowing what else shares the shelf.
