About TRUD

VanEck Consumer Discretionary TruSector ETF is an actively managed exchange-traded fund focused on achieving long-term capital appreciation by investing in companies within the consumer discretionary sector. The fund uniquely combines individual equities—such as Amazon, Tesla, Home Depot, and McDonald's—with exposure to sector-tracking ETFs, notably the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund, to deliver comprehensive representation of the sector’s market capitalization. This hybrid structure is designed to overcome common regulatory constraints that typically force sector ETFs to underweight dominant stocks, allowing VanEck Consumer Discretionary TruSector ETF to offer allocations closely aligned with the sector's true market weights. The ETF covers industries like retail, automobiles, media, and consumer services, providing targeted exposure for asset allocators and portfolio managers seeking precision in sector tracking. By minimizing tracking error to sector benchmarks and avoiding artificial stock caps, this fund serves as an efficient tool for achieving sector-specific portfolio objectives within a single, liquid, and tax-efficient wrapper. The fund launched in August 2025, reflecting VanEck’s commitment to innovative ETF solutions for structural gaps in the investment landscape.
