Vanguard Energy ETF

For a straight bet on American energy, VDE is one of the cheapest ways in. Vanguard's fund holds the US energy sector by market value, tracking the MSCI US Investable Market Energy 25/50 Index, so a handful of giants dominate: ExxonMobil and Chevron alone make up more than a third of the portfolio, followed by producers, refiners, pipeline operators and oilfield-services names. Because it is weighted by size and spans the whole sector rather than a slice, it moves closely with oil and gas prices and the profits they drive. The expense ratio is just 0.09 percent, a fraction of what thematic energy funds charge, and it pays a quarterly dividend. Investors use it to add cyclical, inflation-sensitive exposure or to express a view on commodity prices without picking individual drillers. Vanguard launched it in 2004.
