#ETFWatch

An ETF, or Exchange-Traded Fund, is a type of investment fund that trades on stock exchanges, similar to stocks. It holds a collection of assets, such as stocks, bonds, or commodities, and aims to replicate the performance of a specific index, sector, or asset class. ETFs provide investors with diversification, lower fees, and flexibility, as they can be bought and sold throughout the trading day. Unlike mutual funds, which are priced once a day, ETFs have real-time pricing. Due to these advantages, ETFs have become increasingly popular for both individual and institutional investors seeking a cost-effective way to gain exposure to various markets.
