Commodities-based investing ETFs, including soybean and wheat trackers, experienced double-digit surges on supply chain tightening. Analysts forecast volatility, but net gains could persist if global weather anomalies continue. That said, there are some drawbacks. For starters, Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF is lagging the S&P 500 based on performance right now because it is relatively underweight in technology. And secondly, it is more expensive to own, with a 0.2% expense ratio. But that's still a modest price to pay if you are also getting peace of mind when you buy it. Investors seeking to invest in the U.S. stock market over the long term, while aiming to build a more balanced and diversified portfolio, should consider funds that track major indexes, such as the S&P 500, or broad market funds that cover nearly the entire U.S. market. Global infrastructure investing ETFs are outperforming, aided by rising government spending commitments. iShares Global Infrastructure ETF (IGF) posted a 4% gain in the past month, with forward projections tied to public works expansion data.
