  • Top 3 ETFs to Watch Amid U.S.-India Trade Deal Talks
    April 26, 2026, 10:48 AM EDT. The U.S. and India are negotiating a deal targeting $500 billion in trade by 2030, potentially lowering tariffs and boosting key sectors like tech, agriculture, and industry. If successful, Indian companies could see new momentum despite economic headwinds like high oil prices. For U.S. investors, direct access to Indian stocks is tricky, so ETFs offer a practical alternative. The WisdomTree India Earnings Fund (EPI) uses an earnings-weighted approach, prioritizing profitability over size with exposure to roughly 350 firms. Meanwhile, the iShares MSCI India Small-Cap ETF (SMIN) focuses on smaller companies, diversifying risk with lots of positions and a 0.74% expense ratio, plus dividends. These funds provide varied pathways to tap growth potential if a trade deal emerges.
