What ETFs are, how they work, and why they’re so valuable to today’s investors.
Is there a low-cost, simple investment tool for buying into future trends? Yes: the Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). ETFs trade on a stock exchange and are comprised of a basket of securities that track a particular index. ETFs can also track a sector’s performance, letting investors buy into an industry without relying on individual stocks. Unlike mutual funds, ETFs trade continuously.
