Noun 1. exchange traded fund - a mutual fund that is traded on a stock exchange
In a nutshell: if the window was opened, we easily should be able to invest in the same retirement compatible underlying index EFT mutual funds (F, C, S and I funds) that we are already familiar - except no IFT restrictions; no 12-noon deadline (only the 4pm close); and, at prevailing trade costs of as little as $5 a trade.
Am I a little slow on this . . . and everybody already knew it, or what?
Hi Nsurf,
If you're a little slow than I'm even slower cause I'm still trying to get a handle on how the "window" will enable the unrestricted trades? Unless I'm totally misreading your point.
