FYI: Barclays and Elkhorn Investments announced in a press release on Thursday that they had entered into a strategic partnership. While Barclays has several exchange-traded notes trading on U.S. exchanges, it exited the exchange-traded funds business in late 2009 with the sale of Barclays Global Investors—and thus its iShares business—to BlackRock. The new deal will bring Barclays back into the ETF space, though not necessarily as an issuer.

Ted
