Why invest in ETFs?
Exchange-Traded Funds (also known as ETFs or Tracking Stocks) are index funds
that trade just like any other stock on major stock exchanges. If you want to
invest in the market without the volatility or exposure associated with one
particular stock, ETFs make a practical investment vehicle. Most major stock
indexes have ETFs that you can invest in. These include:
| • |
Nasdaq Composite (Symbol: QQQQ)
|
| • |
Dow Jones Industrial Average (Symbol: DIA)
|
| • |
Standard & Poor's 500 Index (Symbol: SPY) |
If you want to invest in a particular asset class and you're not sure which
individual stock to invest in, see if there is a corresponding ETF available
that suits your needs.
Of course, this list is provided for informational purposes only, and is not

compensated in any manner to include these ETFs in our TOP 5 list.

Did you know that by purchasing shares in the QQQQs, you are actually buying the
weighted equivalent of the entire Nasdaq 100 Index? Diversification in one
security.
