TRUICVanEck Industrials TruSector ETF

VISBVanguard Industrials ETF

In short

TRUI Index sector funds get trimmed by diversification rules that cap their biggest names. TRUI is VanEck's actively managed answer for industrials: full market-cap sector weights, priced at 0.10%.

VIS Industrials, the whole aisle: jet engines and railroads down to small-cap machinery shops, roughly 400 names for 0.09% a year. Vanguard has run it as a straight index fund since 2004.

Stated mandate

TRUI The Fund is actively managed and seeks long-term capital appreciation through securities or instruments providing exposure to industrials-related companies.

VIS The fund seeks to track the MSCI US Investable Market Industrials 25/50 Index and invests in multicapitalization equities focused on the industrials sector.

Why people hold it

  • TRUI Cheap for an active fund: 0.10%, a rounding error from the group's cheapest index options (XLI and FIDU at 0.08%) and well under the typical industrials ETF.
  • The design: own sector stocks up to regulatory limits, then add sector-ETF positions for the rest, so the biggest names aren't shaved down the way capped indexes shave them.vaneck.comvaneck.com 2
  • One unified fee: VanEck's adviser pays the fund's ordinary operating costs, with carve-outs for items like acquired fund fees, interest, trading costs and taxes.vaneck.com
  • Built as a building block. TruSector now covers all 11 GICS sectors, so a sector sleeve can be assembled without mixing methodologies.vaneck.com
  • VIS 0.09% a year against a 0.38% median for broad industrials funds. Index-fund pricing for index-fund work.
  • About 400 holdings spanning large, mid and small US industrials, so defense primes and railroads sit next to smaller machinery and services names.vanguard.com
  • Pure index mandate: it follows the MSCI US Investable Market Industrials 25/50 Index and has tracked it very tightly, with no manager stock-picking layered on.
  • One of the strongest implementations in the broad US industrials group, a multi-billion-dollar fund trading since 2004 and paying quarterly.

Worth knowing

  • TRUI The ETF sleeve carries acquired fund fees, which ride on top of the 0.10% management fee rather than inside it.vaneck.com
  • Industrials spreads across many names rather than one dominant mega-cap, so the capping distortion this structure targets does less work here than in tech or media.vaneck.com
  • Launched in 2026 and actively run: short history, a small asset base, and light trading that can leave spreads wider than the sector's long-established giants.
  • VIS One sector, one cycle. Industrials ride capital spending and freight demand, so this tends to move as a block rather than smooth anything out.
  • The small- and mid-cap tail is part of the design, and it adds bumpiness a large-cap-only sector fund would not carry.vanguard.com
  • Not the price floor in the group: XLI and FIDU both list 0.08%. One basis point, but worth knowing.
