Summary · why it matters

The iShares Global Clean Energy ETF is recommended over the State Street Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF for investors who can tolerate near-term volatility, citing a macro trend toward renewable energy. The State Street fund, with $39.5 billion in assets under management, offers a 0.08% expense ratio and a 2.60% dividend yield, while the iShares fund, at $2.4 billion in assets, charges 0.39% and yields 1.00%. Over five years, the iShares fund experienced a maximum drawdown of 57.20% compared to 26.00% for the State Street fund, yet it has returned 13% in the past three months versus a 13% loss for the State Street fund. The iShares fund holds 105 globally diversified stocks across technology, utilities, and industrials, whereas the State Street fund concentrates on 21 U.S. oil and gas companies.
