ETF Talk: New Fund Offers High Income, Capital Appreciation
A new exchange-traded fund (ETF) that has gained my attention for the dual way it can help you profit is the iShares Morningstar Multi-Asset Income Index Fund (IYLD).

ETF Talk: This Bond Fund Offers Diversity and Yield
Safe-haven investments are hard to come by in this market. All markets seem to go north or south together. With risks rising and interest rates microscopically low, it is hard to find a relatively safe play that also can provide some consistent income. While many high-income stocks can provide you with dividends, the market’s occasional […]
ETF Talk: Bonding with Emerging Markets
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecasted in June that Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth could hit 6.6% this year in developing economies — roughly three times the growth of advanced economies. As tensions rise about what lawmakers should do about the U.S. debt ceiling, and projected economic growth for the United States at an anemic […]
ETF Talk: Dividend Diversification and Appreciation
With all of the negative stories in the news — the U.S. unemployment rate above 9%, the debt ceiling debate, and talk of the dollar losing its status as the world’s reserve currency — diversification is as important as ever for investors to limit their risk. Investing in commodities, such as gold and silver, is […]

Stories and images of the Egyptian uprising have flooded our television screens and newspapers. As we wait anxiously for the outcome of the revolt in this authoritarian state, there is a way to attempt to profit from the action through an exchange-traded fund that offers exposure to Egypt. The Market Vectors Egypt Index ETF (EGPT) […]
Finishing on a High Note
December definitely was a month to remember for the U.S. equity markets. Stocks finished up an ultra-volatile year on a high note, with monthly gains of about 6% in the major market averages. The big gains in the final month turned 2010 into a better-than-average year for the markets. When the final year-end numbers were […]
ETF Talk: Eyeing Dividends to Cushion Volatility
The recent volatility in the stock market may be a little worrisome to you, but one of my currently recommended exchange-traded funds (ETF) is producing gains from both capital appreciation and dividend income. The iShares Dow Jones Select Dividend Index (DVY) is an ETF that seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and […]
Big Trouble in Asia
The big headlines pushing the equity markets lower right now are coming out of Asia. Last week, we saw China take yet another step to put the brakes on inflation, as that country’s central bank raised bank reserve requirement ratios for the second time in just over two weeks. Unlike here in the United States, […]
