What does PPA invest in?

PPA holds US-listed companies active in aerospace and defence, including aircraft manufacturers, defence contractors and suppliers that form an index of the sector.

How does this ETF fit into a portfolio?

It can be used for targeted sector exposure or as a thematic allocation within a diversified portfolio, but because it is concentrated and cyclical it’s usually a complement to, not a replacement for, broad-market holdings.

What are the main risks?

Key risks include sector concentration, sensitivity to government defence spending and geopolitical events, supply-chain issues, and commercial aerospace demand cycles; value can fall as well as rise.

How do I buy or sell PPA?

PPA trades on exchanges like a share. You can buy or sell through a brokerage during market hours; check the fund’s expense ratio, liquidity and holdings before trading.

Invesco Exchange Traded Fd Tr Aerospace & Defense Etf (PPA) Stock

Fund tracking US aerospace and defense companies. Here's the price, business snapshot, and what's worth knowing about Invesco Exchange Traded Fd Tr Aerospace & Defense Etf in August 2026.

PowerShares Aerospace & Defence ETF (PPA) is an exchange-traded fund that offers concentrated exposure to US-listed companies in aerospace and defence — from prime contractors to component suppliers. It aims to reflect the performance of an index composed of firms involved in military, aerospace and defence-related activities. Investors should know this is a sector-specific vehicle: returns are influenced by government defence budgets, geopolitical tensions, contract awards and commercial aerospace cycles. The ETF can provide a convenient way to gain targeted sector exposure without selecting individual stocks, but it carries greater concentration and cyclical risk than broad-market funds. Fees, tracking error and the fund’s holdings mix can all affect outcomes. This is general educational information only — not personalised advice — and investors should consider their risk tolerance, investment horizon and diversification needs before investing.
