ETFs

ETFs, or Exchange-Traded Funds, are investment funds that are traded on stock exchanges, much like individual stocks. They typically hold a diversified portfolio of assets, such as stocks, bonds, commodities, or a mix thereof, and their value fluctuates throughout the trading day as shares are bought and sold.

ETFs are designed to track the performance of a specific index, sector, or asset class, providing investors with a way to gain exposure to a wide range of investments without having to purchase each one individually. They offer advantages such as lower expense ratios than mutual funds, tax efficiency, and the ability to buy and sell shares during market hours.

Investors can buy and sell ETF shares through a brokerage account, and they can use various trading strategies, including limit orders and stop orders. Overall, ETFs provide a flexible and efficient means for investors to capitalize on market opportunities while maintaining diversification and liquidity.
