The world of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) expands and changes at a rapid pace, with investors funneling more than a trillion dollars into these products annually amid a host of new fund launches. It can be easy to get caught up in the noise of the ETF space as a result. One strategy investors might employ to identify targets from among a crowded field is to look at long-term results.

Of course, even multiple years of success is no guarantee that outperformance will continue into the future, but the funds below all stand out for their excellent track records.
