Correctly Classifying Utilities ETFs

TedTed
in The Bullpen
FYI: •Last Friday utilities stocks plummeted 3.5% while broader stock market was little changed
•This was a good example that utilities stocks act as a combination of stocks and bonds. Factor and correlation analyses confirm this notion.
•An investor may want to attribute XLU partially to equities and fixed income for performance analysis purposes.

Ted
