Change Your Investment Strategy with this ETF Recommendation

Exchange Traded Funds, ETF, have become immensely popular since they were first introduced in 1993. Their popularity skyrocketed with subsequent evolution of internet, which allowed institutional trader and individual investor to trade ETF. Now, almost every major financial website and stock charting service has built-in filters for an ETF recommendation.

Why should you trade ETF?

Actually, these Exchange Traded Funds hold assets, such as stocks, and trade at the same price as the net asset value of underlying financial security. For example, ETF of S&P 500 index can be traded just like someone is trading the index, itself. Since, it is almost impossible for an individual to trade such popular indexes like S&P 500 and Dow therefore ETF allow investors to buy and sell their positions just as they would do while trading these Indices. Moreover, stop losses and limit orders can also be conveniently initiated.

Types of ETF

ETF can be of many types. Index ETF is most common which allow investors to trade the performance of an entire Index. As of February 2008, United States financial market had more than 415 Index ETF. Apart from this type, Bond ETF, Commodity ETF and Currency ETF are also in demand. By volume two of the largest ETF are QQQQ and SPY. SPY tracks the performance of S&P 500 while QQQQ follows NASDAQ 100 stocks.

Besides, there are other kinds of large volume ETF. Among the most popular is Vanguard Total Stock Market, VTI, which has more than $130 Billion in net assets. As its name implies, it is a part of Vanguard family of ETF. VTI is designed to track investment return of some 1,200 to 1,300 US stocks. Since March 2009, this ETF has gained over 100% in returns. There are other categories of ETF, as well. These include Bear Market, Europe Stock, Foreign Large Blend, Specialty Stocks and Small Growth etc. In fact, there are so many types that it sometimes gets difficult to select one.

Benefits

It should be noted that the popularity of ETF is primarily due to its characteristics of deriving its value from a number of instruments. Such diversity safeguards traders against sudden large fluctuations, which they usually experience while trading stocks. ETF also allow traders to speculate on the movement of entire Index rather than on multiple financial securities. Other benefits such as low cost, flexibility of trading large Index and tax relief make Exchange Traded Funds, an extremely lucrative option. Nevertheless, these ETF are a potential learning library for beginners as it allows them to learn the ropes of financial markets without putting their financial assets, at risk.

This ETF Service Can Make you Money

I have made more money using these ETF Services than any other service. Basically you are told when to buy and when to sell based on pull backs of ETF's that are growing. They provide their backtest data and the Leveraged ETF Power Rating service has a 79% winning trade record. It seems that every time a leveraged ETF reaches a certain place on the chart, it will make a profit around 80% of the time. Be sure to get a free trial, and they will extend the free trial until you are convinced that the service(s) will work for you. http://e-myth.blogspot.com

The Bayhouse is my Favorite Oregon Restaurant

We love every trip to the Oregon Coast and especially either happy hour or a dinner at the Bay House. They have wonderful food on the bar menu and we love to sip wine, eat off the small plates, and enjoy the wonderful view. For special occasions we have dinner in their dining room. The new cook that Steve the owner hired is wonderful, never thought I could experience goumet food off a bar menu but Bay House has it, and plus we love the great jazz on Saturday nights. Tomorrow is Sunday, Oscar Night, and they are having a party and contest in the bar to watch the Oscar's, can hardly wait. Steve has become a marketing genius and seems to sense what customers want. Next we would like to see a deck just outside the bar, right on the bay, wow would that be nice!

Best Lead Generation Site For Business

LinkedIn is the Best Lead generation site for business, especially small businesses. It is also used heavily for job hunting and is really one of the best ways to keep networking with those you have worked with, worked for, or have come in contact with during your working life. It is best used as a business networking source rather than a personal networking source such as FaceBook or Twitter.

ETF's are the best investments

I believe that ETF investing is the best investment because you can make money in an up market or a down market. The are also powerful because they are diversified, so you are not hurt by one stock. If you use good stock charts you can easily make money with ETF's. One trick is to watch where the big money goes because institutions control the stock market.

Small Business Owners Need to Invest in Gold

With the forecast of The Greatest Depression predicted by Gerald Celente, it is important for all Americans especially to invest in Gold and Silver, especially Gold Coins or Silver Coins. The reason it is important to invest in gold coins and silver coins is for not only asset protection but for inflation protection. This strategy is highly recommended.
