Last episode we talked about mutual funds, and today we’re tackling something you hear all the time in investing: ETFs, also known as Exchange-Traded Funds. In this episode, we’ll break down what an ETF is, how it’s similar to a mutual fund, how it’s different, and when you might use one versus the other. If you’ve ever wondered which option makes the most sense for your investing goals, this “Back to Basics” conversation will help make it simple.

Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are subject to market volatility, including the risks of their underlying investments. They are not individually redeemable from the fund and are bought and sold at the current market price, which may be above or below their net asset value

Investments in target-date funds are subject to the risks of their underlying holdings. The year in the fund name refers to the approximate year (the target date) when an investor in the fund would retire and leave the workforce. The fund will gradually shift its emphasis from more aggressive investments to more conservative investments based on its respective target date. The performance of an investment in a target-date fund is not guaranteed at any time, including on or after the target date.

Investments are subject to risk, including the loss of principal. Some investments are not suitable for all investors, and there is no guarantee that any investing goal will be met. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Talk to your financial advisor before making any investing decisions.
