Looking to Profit From Infrastructure Spending? You should watch these names. Investors focused on an upturn in spending on infrastructure and in the energy sector should consider Chicago Bridge & Iron (CBI) . The two most popular industrial ETFs, the Vanguard Industrials Index Fund ETF Shares (VIS) - Get Report and the Industrial Select Sector SPDR (XLI) - Get Report deploy a passive approach to the trend. First Trust Industrials/Producer Durables AlphaDEX Fund (FXR) - Get Report appears better suited for the increased CapEx spending in the years ahead. This coming spring, we'll see horse-trading in Washington around infrastructure spending, which could lead to better entry points for great money-making CapEx firms like Illinois Tool Works (ITW) - Get Report and Caterpillar (CAT) - Get Report .
