Two ETFs to Piggyback Off the Newly Signed Infrastructure Bill

Exchange traded fund (ETF) investors who want more from the newly signed infrastructure bill can get concentrated exposure, particularly in electric vehicles and internet infrastructure.

“The bill would spend $7.5 billion for electric vehicle charging stations, which the administration says are critical to accelerating the use of electric vehicles to curb climate change,” a Boston.com report notes.

Given this, enter the Global X Autonomous & Electric Vehicles ETF (DRIV).

“The legislation’s $65 billion for broadband access would aim to improve internet services for rural areas, low-income families and tribal communities,” the report adds.

This is where the Global X Data Center REITs & Digital Infrastructure ETF (VPN) comes into play.

DRIV seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Solactive Autonomous & Electric Vehicles Index. The fund offers:

  • High growth potential: DRIV enables investors to access high growth potential through companies critical to the development of autonomous and electric vehicles — a potentially transformative economic innovation.
