Also known as an ETF, an exchange-traded fund is a security that tracks a commodity, bonds, basket of assets, or index and is traded like a stock on the stock exchange. One advantage is investors gain the diversification of an index fund. ETFs can track a wide range of stocks that are trying to mimic the returns of a country or group of countries, similar to mutual funds. With high daily liquidity, more flexibility, and lower fees than mutual fund shares, ETFs experience daily price changes as they are bought and sold.
