An ETF is a bucket of individual stocks and/or bonds or other securities (gold, oil, etc.) formed to achieve a specific purpose or to mimic or track a specific index (the DJIA, S&P 500, Russell 1000, etc.) . Unlike Mutual Funds which do not "trade", ETF’s do trade just like individual stocks. Their value is updated constantly and options contracts can be written and bought on many of them.
a fund(like a mutual fund?) that is traded (bought and sold) on an exchange (New York, etc?)
An Exchange Traded Fund is an investment vehicle meant to mirror the performance of an index or sector. Unlike mutual funds they can be traded line stocks.
Exchange traded funds provide an alternative to mutual funds for the independent investor. Like mutual funds, exchange traded funds track multiple stocks or bonds in a single fund. But what’s nice about exchange traded funds is that you can trade them just like individual shares of stock. You can buy and sell them in real time when the markets are open.
