S&P Metals and Mining SPDR ETF
S&P Metals and Mining SPDR ETF (XME) provides targeted exposure to US-listed companies in the metals and mining sector by tracking the S&P Metals & Mining Select Industry Index. The ETF concentrates on firms involved in steel, aluminium, diversified mining, and related equipment and services, making it sensitive to commodity prices, industrial demand and global growth cycles. Investors use XME to express a sector-specific view or to complement broader commodity or materials holdings, but it is typically more volatile than broad-market ETFs because of concentration and cyclical drivers. Important practical considerations include the ETF’s expense ratio, liquidity, holdings concentration and dividend policies. As with any sector play, returns can be uneven and past performance does not predict future results. This summary is educational only and not personal investment advice — suitability depends on individual goals, risk tolerance and time horizon; consult a qualified adviser if unsure.
