PAVE ETF SET UP FOR GAINS
Earlier in March 2021, the American Society of Civil Engineers granted the U.S. an infrastructure grade of a C-minus. The ASCE stated the need for bridge repair, road maintenance, modernization of the electric grid, and water quality improvements.
President Joe Biden has recently released details of his “Build Back Better” plan which aims to sustain a budget of $2 trillion for nationwide infrastructure advanchment. Investors have thus jumped on board and PAVE rose +1.19% in the market.

PAVE holds 100 stocks from companies which obtain approximately 50% of revenue from infrastructure construction alongside material and equipment related services. This does not invest in utility companies.

Now with Biden’s massive spending plan, analysts are promoting the possibility of stocks rising 41% in this current year.
