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: The SPDR S&P 500 (SPY | A-97) is arguably the most important ETF in the world. Launched in January 1993, it was the first U.S.-listed exchange-traded fund. Thanks to that head start, today the fund boasts more assets than the next three largest ETFs combined. Regards, Ted http://www.etf.com/sections/features-and-news/spy-assets-cusp-200-billion
