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: Last year far and away represented the record for ETF closures, with 152 funds shuttering during 2018. This year is looking to rival the previous one, which is more than a bit remarkable given that the closure count in 2018 was boosted by the mass closure of 50 iPath ETNs that April.
