ETFs are a basket or group of securities, with each ETF containing all types of investments including stocks, commodities or bonds. ETFs are bought and sold during market hours during which the market price of the ETF is determined by the value of the fund's holdings as well as supply and demand in the market place for the ETF.
There are various types of ETFs available to investors that can be used for income generation, speculation and price increases with 24option offering some of the largest and most desired funds.
For Example: The top 10 holdings for the “Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF” better known as VTI are:
Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Berkshire Hathaway, Johnson & Johnson, Google (A & B) and JP Morgan.
One of the key advantages for trading ETFs via CFDs is that ETFs offer low cost access to virtually every corner of the market with fewer commissions than trading stocks and/or commodities individually as the funds on offer are diversified and contain the most lucrative companies, commodities and bonds in the financial markets.
ETFs allow investors big and small to build institutional-calibre portfolios with lower costs and better transparency.
