ETF Talk: Ride Resurgent Real Estate
This week, we unveil an easy way to invest in real estate to ride the recovery in the housing market. After all, to build a house, you need to put it on land. This ETF Talk dovetails nicely with the ones from the previous two weeks that focused on industrials and housing, two industries set […]
ETF Talk: Is Housing a Sturdy Investment?
While last week’s ETF Talk explained how to capitalize on the housing rebound by investing in industrials, today’s article focuses more directly on how to profit from the recovery in housing.

ETF Talk: Putting Industrials to Work for You
Let’s look at the housing recovery. The rebound actually began last year, about five years after the housing bubble burst.

ETF Talk: Energize Your Portfolio
To build upon last week’s ETF Talk theme of sectors that offer steady and consistent growth, albeit generally at a slow pace, this week’s article focuses on the energy sector.

ETF Talk: Utilities Offer Relative Safety and Income
This week’s ETF Talk centers on a sector some may find to be lacking in glamour: utilities.
