FYI: Where did all of the new exchange-traded funds go?
It wasn’t long ago when it seemed each week saw several or more new ETFs (and exchange-traded notes) hit the market. There were 268 new exchange-traded products last year, 276 in 2017, 246 in 2016 and 285 in 2015, according to FactSet. That equates to five product launches per week during the four-year period.
