Three Sector ETFs Worth A Look

Fund participants are tired of the fees and a number of misinformed "victims" are looking towards a more economical, transparent, manageable and productive ETF.

Both professional and individual investors are supporting the growth of these funds. Peter Way for Forbes looks into the ways professionals are protecting their own at-risk positions. Way points to 3 ETFs he is looking at now:

Vanguard Telecom Services (VOX), up 4.3% year-to-date

PowerShares Oil and Gas Services (PXJ), up 5.5% year-to-date

Market Vectors Gold Mining (GDX), down 0.9% year-to-date

If you are thinking about these or any other ETF for your portfolio, make sure you know what you are buying and that it makes sense for your investment goals. It is also important to create a stop-loss plan.
