Transportation & Logistics

Air freight and logistics, airlines, maritime, road and rail, and transportation networks are all part of the transportation and logistics sector. Transportation infrastructure and services related to the transportation and logistics field are also included. As the majority of consumer goods purchased by individuals and businesses need to be moved from one location to another, the transportation industry is a lynchpin in the global economic infrastructure.

This sector is versatile and highly diverse, being comprised of industrial companies representing airlines, railroads, truckers, equipment and leasing stocks, as well as logistics companies. The vast majority of companies in the transportation sector are large and well-established, giving investors the opportunity to earn higher returns through consistent dividend payouts.

Diversifying your portfolio across multiple funds in this sector can provide a profitable return while mitigating risk.
