Expense ratios for exchange-traded funds (ETFs)—the measure of how much an investor must pay annually in order to invest in the fund—have trended downward recently.

AMZA: Quiet Market Leadership Continues, Stick With It In 2025
Stocks have surged since mid-August 2024, with the S&P 500 up over 12%, driven by Financials, Information Technology, and Consumer Discretionary sectors. I reiterate a buy rating on the InfraCap MLP ETF due to its compelling valuation and strong 29% total return since August 2024. AMZA offers high current income with a 6-7% yield, modest leverage, and a focus on midstream MLPs, despite some liquidity concerns.

Energy firms had a lackluster year in 2024, but a renewed focus by the new administration on incentivizing an increase in energy production by loosening regulations over drilling on federal lands could help boost the sector.

AMZA: Long-Term Value Still Questionable
InfraCap MLP ETF's long-term performance is poor, with a -81% share price drop since inception and a -19% total return despite dividend reinvestment. The fund's distribution history is concerning, with payouts dropping from $20.30 per share in 2015 to $3.32 currently, a 95% decline after inflation. MLP funds generally perform poorly long term due to cyclical industry challenges and high distribution rates, leaving little room for growth during downturns.
