Exchange traded funds

Posted by Jack Haddad on March 3, 2008 at 3:47 pm

Exchange traded funds (ETF) assets totaled more than $568.7 billion of the more than $1 trillion in stock index funds as of Jan. 31, according to the Investment Company Institute.  This represents  32% increase over last year. However,  the number is down $39.7 billion from December of 2007.  Although the market offers many ETFs, few have a long history.   Very few have a one-year performance record, let alone a three-year record — arguably an important milestone — so only time will tell whether they can build solid track record over longer time periods.
