Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: After strong growth following their creation in the early 90s, the demand for ETFs has slowed down and managers have responded by culling funds that didn’t gain momentum: 97 fund closures in 2015 set a new record. We believe, however, that groundwork is being laid for another phase of rapid growth. Regards, Ted http://dailyalts.com/six-factors-fueling-the-next-phase-of-etf-growth/
