A few years ago there were only a handful of Exchange Traded Funds. Today there are over 500 ETFs covering many different segments of both the domestic and foreign markets.
Exchange Traded Funds:
- Are listed on the various stock exchanges
and trade just like a stock
- They are priced continuously throughout
the trading day
- ETFs can be sold short
- You pay a commission when buying and selling
just like when buying an individual stock.
ETFs offer all of the advantages of a mutual fund without some of the disadvantages:
-
Diversification:
A typical ETF will hold many individual stocks within its portfolio.
-
Professional Management:
ETFs are managed by highly professional investment specialist that make the buy and sell decisions for their individual ETF portfolios.
-
Economies of Scale:
ETFs take advantage of their size to minimize transaction cost associated with buying and selling individual stocks within their respective portfolios.

With ETFs there are no minimum holding periods and no early redemption fees.

- Growth oriented (Smaller growth stocks)

Germany, etc.)
