Strive U.S. Energy ETF may have changed its mandate, as its 'anti-ESG' proxy-voting guidelines are no longer in its prospectus. DRLL has consistently underperformed peer broad energy funds like XLE and VDE by a cumulative 12-13% since inception. Despite attractive valuations in the energy sector, DRLL's poor performance and questionable mandate make it an unattractive investment option.

Energy, Consumer Non-cyclicals, and Financials sectors have attractive-or-better ratings at the beginning of 3Q24. Investors should focus on sector funds with quality stocks, low fees, and good portfolio management for better returns.
