  • The Dangers of Commission-Free ETF Trading


    On this episode of Intelligent Money Minute, we interview Matt Hougan, Chairman of Inside ETFs on the dangers of commission-free ETF trading. Recently, custodians have been offering commission-free trading on ETFs, but many believe this can encourage misbehaving. Matt lays out the big picture in regards to the market and the opportunity. During this episode, he highlights the benefit and the behavioral risk of commission-free trading. The benefit is that those paying commissions will experience a leveling of the playing field. On the flip side, the behavioral risk is resisting the temptation to trade more frequently. Just because you can trade something doesn’t mean you should.
    The adage, “There’s no free lunch” continues to ring true today. Custodians will make money somehow, and it is important for you to understand that. Investors should be grateful for the recent drop in commissions, but there is a behavioral risk that is attached to commission-free trading. You can learn more about these dangers and the need for having an investor behavioral coach by visiting our philosophy page.
