Trading Characteristics

ETF Liquidity

The liquidity of an ETF is primarily based on the liquidity of the stocks that make up the ETF, not by the activity in the ETF itself... Learn more about ETF liquidity.

ETF Pricing

One of the more complex characteristics of ETFs is their pricing. ETFs can be traded on stock exchanges all day long - much like stocks. Learn more about ETF pricing.

ETF Creation/Redemption

ETF shares are created (and redeemed) via a unique in-kind transaction known as the creation/redemption process. Learn more about this process.

ETFs may not be suitable for all investors. •Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that when shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than original cost. Most investors will also incur customary brokerage commissions when buying or selling shares of an ETF. •Investments in securities and derivatives, in general, are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. •ETF Shares may trade below their net asset value (“NAV”). The NAV of shares will fluctuate with changes in the market value of an ETF’s holdings. In addition, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for shares will develop or be maintained.

Securities are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.
