Our read on each fund

HAILBState Street SPDR S&P Kensho Smart Mobility ETF

ICOPBiShares Copper and Metals Mining ETF

In short

HAIL A 2017-vintage bet on how the world moves: self-driving and connected cars, drones, and the software that routes them. Kensho's machine-read index picks the names, at a fee below the typical global thematic fund.

ICOP The copper-miner aisle has a price leader. ICOP tracks a global index of copper and metals miners for 0.47% a year, the lowest sticker in its peer group, with BlackRock's indexing machinery behind it.

Stated mandate

HAIL The fund seeks to track the S&P Kensho Smart Transportation Index, which targets companies advancing smart transportation through autonomous and connected vehicles, drones, and advanced transportation tracking and optimization systems.

ICOP The Fund seeks to track an index of U.S. and non-U.S. equities of companies primarily engaged in copper and metal ore mining.

Why people hold it

  • HAIL 0.45% a year, below the median fee for global thematic funds. Cheap is rare in a niche this narrow.
  • About 90 names across autonomous and connected vehicles, drones, and transport tracking systems, so no single stock has to carry the whole theme.ssga.com
  • A defined slice, not a catch-all innovation basket: the index screens for companies actually advancing smart transportation, globally rather than US-only.ssga.com
  • Sits in the upper half of its global thematic peer group, with a State Street 1940 Act wrapper and quarterly distributions behind it.
  • ICOP At 0.47% a year it is the cheapest fund in the copper-mining cohort, undercutting COPX (0.65%), COPP (0.66%), COPJ (0.75%) and KCOP (0.99%), and sitting below the group's 0.66% median.
  • A rules-based pure play: it follows the STOXX Global Copper and Metals Mining Index, holding companies primarily engaged in copper and metal ore mining. Miners' shares, not copper futures, and no stock-picking.ishares.com
  • Global by mandate, not by accident: the index reaches U.S. and non-U.S. miners, which is where much of the world's copper actually trades. Distributions are paid quarterly.ishares.com
  • One of the stronger builds in a small copper-mining field, pairing the lowest fee in the group with a mainstream iShares index wrapper.

Worth knowing

  • HAIL Small asset base and thin trading. Spreads can run wider than in the big thematic funds, and that gap is a real cost on the way in and out.
  • One theme, all equity, roughly 90 stocks. It has been among the more volatile funds in its cohort and moves with sentiment on mobility tech.
  • Cheap for its niche, not cheap outright. Broad global peers like KLMT (0.10%) and PBPH (0.13%) charge a fraction of it for wider mandates.
  • ICOP Non-diversified by design: a few dozen miners levered to one metal, with the largest names carrying a big slice. Copper prices and mine-level news drive the ride.ishares.com
  • A large share of the basket is listed outside the U.S., so currency moves and foreign market risks come along with the copper exposure.ishares.com
  • It launched in 2023, so the live record is short, and trading is moderate rather than heavy. Limit orders earn their keep on bigger tickets.
