The year 2022 has been the worst in decades for the stock market as the S&P 500 Index has been in a bear territory over the past week. Decades-high inflation, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and tightening monetary policy have led to tumultuous trading. While the energy sector is shining, other sectors are caught up in the sharp market sell-off, with technology bearing the brunt the most. However, a few ETFs like iShares North American Natural Resources ETF IGE, SPDR S&P North American Natural Resources ETF NANR, VanEck Morningstar Global Wide Moat ETF MOTG, SonicShares Global Shipping ETF BOAT, and SPDR S&P Metals & Mining ETF XME have defied the turmoil and are up this year.Inflation is soaring at its fastest pace in more than 40 years, buoyed by supply constraints, robust consumer demand and disruptions to global food and energy markets worsened by Russia's war against Ukraine. Natural resources like oil and gas, precious metals, and timber tend to perform well during periods of high inflation and rising rates. Investors have been pouring a lot of money into natural resources ETFs this year as they seek inflation hedges (read: ETFs to Win as Inflation Jumps to New 40-Year High).Additionally, metal and mining companies are also getting a boost due to the rise in raw materials prices. Further, the ongoing supply chain issues around the world continued to bolster the demand for shipping, pushing the rates higher and thus benefiting the shipping companies.Let’s dig into the detail of the above-mentioned ETFs:iShares North American Natural Resources ETF (IGE) – Up 17.6%iShares North American Natural Resources ETF offers exposure to oil and gas, mining, and forestry companies by tracking the S&P North American Natural Resources Sector Index.
