    Shockingly uninformed? The US produced a record 13.1 bil. bu. corn crop last year with the largest acreage since the 40s, but we will burn 3.1 bil. bu. in the form of ethanol. Surplus stocks are expected to be near 1.3 bil. bu. Take away ethanol production away and the surplus would be near 4.4 bil. bu. What's more, US ethanol production is expected to consume more than 4 bil. bu. of corn next year. The reason corn prices are so high is directly attributable to ethanol. Does guy seriously think supply and demand don't matter. Tell that to a hungry family in India that has seen food costs double so we can take pennies off the price of driving SUVs. Reply

    1. I also don't understand what's been gotten at here.

    2. But I do find lists are often useful. As one example, lists of best performers.     Reply

    ETF beats the mutual fund MER and the advantages of tracking your investments constantly. Try to buy gold or silver certificates from banks. The buy and sold price difference per oz. can be $1.00 U.S.and one has to line up at the banks. Reply

    I would like to find a ETF site that gave daily current data instead of something that is current as of Feb 29th and now it is April 7th

    Who has daily current information in order to make an intelligent decision?     Reply

    I thought it was interesting. Showed pricing power exists in the way iShares is segmenting. Also showed direct competition by segment worked to bring prices down, even when the options availability and market cap would indicate the much larger player should have pricing power.

    Off to see if iShares is public.

    Well,

    I have to say I found it very interesting. To see some direct competitors (IVV and SPY) have very small ERs. And compare that to those that should have ERs lower (EEM) and see none of the big funds companies has a reasonable alternative. Explains the slippage on some funds. I don't really care about the total dollars, but the ERs comparison is very interesting. It also shows iShares has done a great job of pricing their market. Off to see if they are public.

    Jim, with much respect for the work you have done, I have to agree with Thoroughbred. I have no problem with the ETF industry making lots of money because they offer a valuable service. I mean, how else am I going to invest in the Dow Industrials without something like DIA, which is adjusted daily for only .18. (The ER should be .10, but maybe it will come down. After all, the SPDR people are doing better with an ER of .10.)

    The list I would love to see is that of investor profit per fund after expenses. What funds are at the top of that list? --during the last year and during the last 10 years? My benchmark is DIA and I'll bet several funds can beat it during the last 12 months, but not in the long run.

    Thanks

    While I appreciate all the time and e-paper spent compiling the information, what does it mean? That some of the firms putting out more product are making money on that product? Reply
