Thursday, March 14, 2:48 PM Investors continue to pour money into floating-rate and leveraged loan funds - whether in a quest for yield, worries about higher rates, or "friendliness" to just about all asset classes. The PowerShares Senior Loan ETF (BKLN) has $2.7B AUM, thanks to $1.2B of inflows in 2013. Just 4 months old, competitor Highland iBoxx Senior Loan ETF (SLNL) has already pulled in $57M. Eaton Vance (EV) could also benefit thanks to its popular Floating Rate Advantage Fund - poised to double AUM this year. Comment! [Financials]
Wednesday, March 13, 4:43 PM Today's BlackRock (BLK)/Fidelity deal confirms U.S. Commodity Funds CEO John Hyland's thesis of the ETF industry moving into its "3rd era." Era #1 began with the launch of the SPY, and era #2 started with the GLD. The new era is "all about distribution" and reaching retail investors individually and via 401(k)s. For late entries into the ETF space who lack true distribution capabilities - BEN, TROW, EV - the ship may have already sailed. Comment! [Financials]

Tuesday, February 12, 3:24 PM ETFs are likely to displace mutual funds within the next 15 years, says financial advisor Ric Edelman, preaching to the choir at IU's Inside ETFs conference. Mutual funds are a "pencil and paper" business model in a high-tech world, he says, reminding ETFs are still a very young investment vehicle, with just a 3% rate of U.S. ownership. 7 Comments [Financials]
Thursday, January 31, 3:14 PM U.S. stock mutual funds took in $6.35B in new money in the week ended Jan. 23, according to ICI, the 3rd consecutive week of inflows.

Sunday, January 27, 9:18 AM The money management business inspires a lively exchange at the Barron's Roundtable, with Brian Rogers' liking of Legg Mason (LM) as either a value or takeover play getting the thumbs up from Mario Gabelli, but a razzing from Bill Gross who says the stock-picking industry is in secular decline thanks to ETFs. Gabelli to Gross: "If you want to preach in favor of mindless investing, we don't have to stand by." 39 Comments [Financials, Quick Ideas]
