Are there industry-based ETF's which contain the same/similar company stocks as those contained in each of the (31) MorningStar Main Industry groups ??   I would like to sort through such Industry-based ETF's.And likewise sort through the MorningStar Main Industry groups. And then be able to compare the results of these two separate sorts against one another.
Thanks in advance for your detailed response to this question.

There aren't any Exchange Traded Funds which would match up exactly to the Morningstar Industries and Sub-Industries.

I am not in a position to suggest what ETFs might be close enough to use for your purposes. The trainers can't give setting, interpretation or investment advice.

I'll move this topic to the Stock and Market Talk forum so other traders will be more likely to see it and comment.

Good Evening! Here's a cool idea I got from the Webinar at Worden ( Mr. Michael Thompson, Mrs. Julia,  and Super Star Jim) the week before last. Just go to make yourself a new watchlist. Then once you have that. Click on add symbols. There you will find, if you put in the word "currency." I believe several etfs and/or etns should pop up. Looking for an etf that follows gold? Try "GLD." lol, just the letters no period or parenthesis included:). So just make the list of Industries or subindustries that you care to follow, and type them in. Take for instance semiconductors. You would get the etfs like; usd, xsd, or smh. It's pretty nifty. I find it really helps, if you are looking specifically for etfs to maybe just punch in the letters ETF and you will have a long  list to visually scan through. Match them up and you are GUCCI!!
