FYI: In November 2015, the last time I updated my “World’s Cheapest ETF Portfolio,” I laid out a challenge to the ETF industry: “If someone would just launch a commodity fund priced at 0.25%,” I wrote, “we’d really be in business.”
My portfolio tracks the lowest-cost ETF in each of six different asset classes: U.S. stocks, international stocks, emerging market stocks, bonds, REITs and commodities—and the commodity fund always stuck out like a sore thumb. While I could get complete U.S. equity exposure for just 0.03%/year in fees, the cheapest commodity product out there charged 0.50%!
