Amex - Where ETFs Were Born, Raised, and Spend All Their Quality Time

Tag: Beginning Investors, ETFsPhyslab @ 2:00 am

Over on Premium Content I am beginning a series of entries on Exchange Traded Funds (ETF) web sites.  The first one is the granddaddy of sites, the American Stock Exchange (Amex). I consider this site to be a starting point, but there are errors in the database as pointed out on Premium Content (PC).

As I mentioned on PC, be wary of all the different ETFs.  Don’t be overwhelmed with the vast number.  Rather, stick with the basic ETFs and above all, keep in mind the expense ratio.  We want them as low as possible.  We use Vanguard ETFs, for the most part, for this reason.  In some portfolios we hold iShares as Vanguard did not have ETFs when we first began constructing portfolios around ETFs.
