Lol only fools trade ETF's
Let's do some quick math:
S & P 500 ytd = 1295-1257 = 38/1257 = 3%
SPY ytd = 129.74-125.5 = 4.24/125.5 = 3.4%
ETF wins
But yes, commodity ETFs, leveraged ETFs, and highly volatile ETFs do eventually erode value and split multiple times so holding any of those can be a losing game. For the Index ETFs it's less of an issue. NAV values have always been pretty consistent.
I'm still waiting for the special 1000X leveraged JP Morgan Silver short ETF to ride myself. Those triple Bulls and Bears are way too tame.
