Best 4 Shipping ETFs for 2026 and How to Invest

This ETF launched in January 2022 and tracks the U.S. Global Sea to Sky Cargo Index. This is not a pure-play shipping ETF. It includes a mix of global shipping firms alongside logistics and courier companies such as FedEx (FDX -0.82%) and United Parcel Service (UPS +0.02%).

Even with that broader exposure, performance has held up. As of March 31, 2026, SEA was up 17.08% year to date on a NAV basis.
