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: As is probably no surprise to readers of this website, the push toward using ETFs over mutual funds in a portfolio is ever-growing. Asset flow data exhibits a rather large swing in assets away from mutual funds toward ETFs. And with added pressures from fee compression and the Department of Labor, along with continued innovation in the ETF market, this trend does not appear to be slowing.
