Future Mobility ETFs: Rerouting the Auto Industry
As an ex-future mobility research analyst, I spent a lot of time looking at financial statements and there was very little to see. New entrants in the space had no revenues (and if they had revenues then they had no profitability) and there was very little proof that they would hit their targets.

IDRV: Tariffs And Lack Of U.S. Tech Are Significant Drawbacks
iShares Self-Driving EV and Tech ETF is a hold due to challenges in the autonomous vehicle industry, lack of U.S. large tech companies, and risk of import tariffs. The Fund is globally diversified with even weights on U.S., European, and Asian companies, but lacks well-established U.S. large tech companies. Performance, expenses, and dividends of IDRV compared to peer funds show suboptimal returns despite a lower expense ratio and growing dividend yield.
