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: Thematic ETFs are popular vehicles for firms to issue, but not all of them are successes.
For every slam-dunk ETF such as Exchange Traded Concept’s ROBO Global Robotics and Automation Index ETF (ROBO), which boasts over $1 billion in assets under management (AUM), there are a handful of similar but shuttered thematic ETFs.
