    I think its unfair to list NETS etfs in this list even though they have very few assets.NETS launched a whole bunch of these country specific etfs like DAX for Germany recently. So it may take some time before they grow. What do other readers think? Reply

    also etns may be easier to create by issuer than etfs
    if a demand appears
    the issue is whether ubs feels it pays to have resources devoted to a 5 mln indexed certificate of deposit (uag)

    plus timing, nets may take some time to take off     Reply

    The Matt Hougan article on theme ETF expenses is helpful -- thanks for the pointer. He's right -- makes you want to buy the stocks of the ETF firms more than the ETFs themselves. Reply

    Are HealthShares ETFs Too Specialized? [view article]
    When I first learned of the HealthShares concept, I was rather excited. I had always found that there were very few healthcare funds that invested in smaller companies (the few that do are actively managed). Any sort of passive vehicle was heavily weighted by Big Pharma, as are most of the actively managed ones.

    Well, these guys have gone WAY too far. This is far too specialized. Any investors in these funds had better be prepared to be long-term holders, as the liquidity will probably never be very good. Perhaps going as a mutual fund might have made more sense.     Reply

    I believe Barclay's launched an ETN, exchange-traded note rather than an ETF. Reply

    Barclays and Powershares were to launch India ETF's on Dec 20th. Nothing has happened. Both will not comment. Anyone know the status ? Reply
