TD Ameritrade Drops Major No-Fee ETFs

Ted

FYI: (This is a more detailed follow-up article.)

Starting Nov. 20, advisors who custody assets at TD Ameritrade will no longer be able to trade any Vanguard ETFs—and many iShares ETFs—commission free. Instead, the funds will carry a standard trading cost, starting at $6.95 per trade.

A handful of ETFs by PIMCO, PowerShares, State Street and VanEck will also be removed from commission-free trading.

I stand corrected regarding the old list. I checked the commission-free list as of Sept. 29th using the internet Wayback Machine ( https://archive.org/web/ ) and it showed about 100 ETFs.
