The Motley Fool· 2025-12-20 09:20
Core Viewpoint - The Vanguard Industrials ETF is a strong option for investors, but the Global X Defense Tech ETF presents an alternative for those seeking potential outperformance in the industrial sector [1][3]. Group 1: Vanguard Industrials ETF - The Vanguard Industrials ETF has increased nearly 20% year to date, outperforming the S&P 500, and holds a diverse portfolio of 391 stocks, providing broad exposure to the industrial sector [2]. - The ETF features a low expense ratio of 0.09% per year, equating to $9 on a $10,000 investment, making it cost-effective for investors [2]. Group 2: Global X Defense Tech ETF - The Global X Defense Tech ETF, launched in September 2023, has quickly surpassed traditional industrial ETFs, with a current market size of $4.97 billion [5]. - This ETF differentiates itself by allocating 14.6% of its weight to technology stocks and includes Palantir Technologies as its largest holding, which is not common in older industrial ETFs [7]. - The fund focuses on evolving themes in national defense, emphasizing technology such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and drones, aligning with modern defense spending trends [8]. Group 3: Regional Diversification - The Global X ETF offers significant regional diversification, with nearly 37% of its holdings from outside the U.S., including an 8% allocation to German equities, which are expected to double defense spending over the next five years [11]. - The ETF also has a 5.5% weight in French stocks, as France plans to double its defense spending by 2027 compared to a decade ago, highlighting the growing global focus on defense investments [12].
