ETF Talk: Investing in the IT Matrix
While the last couple of ETF Talks have focused on location-based technology exchange-traded funds (ETFs), this week’s write-up will target a key part of the industry: information technology. In this age of communication, conveying information increasingly faster and more efficiently is of paramount importance. And an ETF that follows this trend is the Vanguard […]
ETF Talk: Are Chinese Technology Companies Future Asian Tigers?
In keeping with last week’s theme of highlighting international technology companies, today’s ETF Talk focuses on China. Indeed, China is the world’s most populous country and its people increasingly have money to spend on the latest smartphones, computers and other devices. U.S. companies such as Apple are placing big bets on the Chinese consumer, but […]
ETF Talk: Technology Goes Global
Countries in Asia and Europe are joining the United States as drivers of technology innovation. Indeed, technology advances can come from developed and developing countries alike. For that reason, I want to bring to your attention a globally focused technology exchange-traded fund (ETF), the SPDR S&P International Technology Sector (IPK). The fund tracks non-U.S. technology […]
ETF Talk: Can You Trust Technology?
If you are reading this report, you are using technology. More and more, technology is becoming part of our daily lives and ordinary activities. Just a few short years ago, computing tablet technology was considered extraordinary. Now, it is commonplace. Devices of all sorts are becoming increasingly connected, and the next big development beyond our […]

ETF Talk: Ready to Energize Your Portfolio?
After a few weeks spent examining narrow segments of the energy sector, today’s ETF Talk takes the opposite approach by zooming out to look at the energy industry as a whole. An exchange-traded fund (ETF) which takes such a wide-lens perspective is the Energy Select Sector SPDR (XLE). With demand in energy practically guaranteed to […]
ETF Talk: The Answer is Blowin’ in the Wind
You likely have heard about the potential of wind power but you may not know about its potential as an investment. Wind power is becoming a favorite among those who favor “going green,” so I think this alternative energy sector is worth addressing. Just as last week’s ETF Talk featured solar energy as an area […]
ETF Talk: Are Solar Stocks Heating up?
Today’s ETF Talk is aimed at educating you about investing in solar energy. I am not recommending today’s featured fund, Guggenheim Solar (TAN), but I want you to be aware of it for the future. My intent is to build upon our series of energy sector ETF Talks by taking a look at the solar […]
ETF Talk: Natural Gas Offers Potential Fuel for Profits
Today, we continue our series of energy-sector ETF Talks with a natural gas-focused fund. Used for power generation, heating homes and other domestic applications, as well as fuel for vehicles engineered to run on it, natural gas is generally regarded as a cleaner alternative to gasoline and other oil-based energy sources. As energy demand continues […]
ETF Talk: This Fund Could be a Gas
High and rising gas prices, causing pain at the pump, are sweeping across the nation like an epidemic right now. And while the contagion surely has spread to you and me, the best revenge could be to capitalize on this trend by investing in oil and gas companies. For the next few weeks, we will […]
