Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

FDNCFirst Trust Dow Jones Internet Index Fund

LOHABRoundhill HALO ETF

In short

FDN The original internet ETF. Since 2006 it has held about 40 US companies that earn at least half their revenue from the internet, split between commerce and services: pure-play by construction, concentrated by design, and priced above the thematic average.

LOHA No data

Stated mandate

FDN The Fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the Dow Jones Internet Composite Index. It normally invests at least 90% of net assets in securities comprising that index.

LOHA No data

Why people hold it

  • FDN Launched in 2006, it is the elder statesman of internet funds: nearly two decades of continuous operation and a multi-billion-dollar asset base.
  • Genuinely pure-play. A company must earn at least 50% of its sales from the internet to enter the index, which holds roughly 40 of the largest, most actively traded names.spindices.com
  • No stock-picking. It replicates the Dow Jones Internet Composite Index, normally keeping at least 90% of net assets in the index's own constituents.ftportfolios.com
  • Sits in the upper half of the US thematic funds we review, with easy day-to-day trading a big part of why.

LOHA No data

Worth knowing

  • FDN At 0.49% a year it runs above the typical US thematic fund (median 0.35%), and cohort leaders like TECB (0.30%) and LRND (0.14%) charge less for tech-flavored exposure.
  • Roughly 40 non-diversified holdings: the biggest internet names drive most of the ride, in both directions.ftportfolios.com
  • Built for price exposure, not income. Payouts have been absent recently, so cash flow is not the point here.
