As ETFs get more complicated, knowing whether they're attractive to you or whether you're the right person to use them or how to use them gets extremely difficult.
So an ETF is a bit like an open-ended mutual fund, but they're far more beloved by investors because an ETF is backed by a bank or what's called an authorized participant that provides it with constant liquidity.
The shares trade in exchanges so you can buy and sell them during the day.
They're very tax efficient.
because of the way that this redemption in kind works when a bank steps in to make sure that people match the supply and demand for those shares.

As ETFs get more complicated, knowing whether they're attractive to you or whether you're the right person to use them or how to use them gets extremely difficult.
