Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

TMEDBT. Rowe Price Health Care ETF

UTESBVirtus Reaves Utilities ETF

In short

TMED No data

UTES Utilities, but stock-picked. UTES has run an active, value-driven, bottom-up portfolio of electricity, gas and water companies since 2015, at a fee below what the typical active US equity ETF charges.

Stated mandate

TMED No data

UTES The Fund seeks total return from capital appreciation and income.

Why people hold it

TMED No data

  • UTES Real stock picking in a quiet sector: a value-based, bottom-up process hunting utility names with room for income growth and capital appreciation.
  • The 0.49% fee undercuts the 0.65% median for active US equity ETFs in its peer group, so the manager isn't digging out of a cost hole.
  • Live since 2015 and now a billion-dollar-plus fund that trades easily, it sits in the upper half of its active US equity peer group.
  • Pays on a quarterly schedule, matching a mandate that chases total return from both capital appreciation and income.

Worth knowing

TMED No data

  • UTES At least 80% of assets sit in companies tied to generating or distributing electricity, gas or water. This is one sector, not the whole market.
  • Cheap for active, pricey next to the broad index-style leaders in its cohort such as DFAU (0.12%) and AVLC (0.15%).
  • No declared index behind it. The portfolio reflects the manager's judgment, so there's no benchmark to grade tracking against.
