FYI: On paper, target-date ETFs sounded great. ETFs offer flexibility, transparency, low cost—why not use them to save for retirement?
But target-date ETFs never quite got off the ground. In 2014, BlackRock shuttered its entire line of iShares target-date ETFs, after they'd gathered just $310 million in assets in six years. Deutsche liquidated its Xtracker target-date ETFs a year later.
No target-date ETFs have launched since.
