- There are now over 6,000 ETFs on 60 exchanges and ETFs exist for everything from corporate bonds to gold bars to oil futures. Like the USB port or a gas pump, ETFs have basically standardized the entire universe of investing so that everything under the sun now trades like shares of Apple. But what, exactly is an ETF and why have they become so popular? Bloomberg explains in this short video.

For a beginner, this video can be confusing lol. In simple terms, an ETF (exchange traded fund) is a "basket of stocks." An ETF contains multiple companies, like Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, and Walmart. Furthermore, an ETF can be bought and sold like an individual stock. Lastly, what makes ETFs so special? ETFs are special because they offer diversification (less risk) when compared to buying an individual stock.
Summed it up better than the two other videos I have watched, thanks for breaking it down!
thanks man :)
Thanks
I thought an index fund was a “basket of stocks” ?
How is that different than an index fund?
With the approval of bitcoin ETFs, it's widely expected that the price of bitcoin will soar past $100k. I'd be remiss not to capitalize on this opportunity immediately. I'm eager to invest my $500k in cash savings, which currently languish in the face of inflation. However, I'm concerned: is it perhaps a bit late to maximize profits at this juncture?
I’ve diversified my 350K portfolio across various market with the aid of an investment coach, I have been able to generate a little bit above $730k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds.
Mind if I ask you to recommend this particular coach you using their service?
I work with Sonya Lee Mitchell who is a licensed fiduciary. Just look up the name. All the information you need to work with a letter to set up an appointment is included.
Appreciate this recommendation, hopefully I can get some insight to where the economy is headed and strategies to beat inflation with when I hear back from Sonya
Still don’t know what an ETF is
I read this right after I said it lol
lol i laughed with all my heart, that's exactly the question i had after watching this animation
Exactly!!!!!!
Excellent Video clip! Sorry for butting in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you researched - Rozardner Flying Bird Reality (search on google)? It is a smashing exclusive product for learning a simple option trading secret to win big without the headache. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my BF at very last got amazing results with it.

I would love to DCA into ETFs for the next decades - if it goes up, fine. If it gets down, I'd opt to buy more Mutual funds.....Do you have better recommendations? I've got $250k ready money to invest and secure my future, I'm 31
Agreed, After taking charge of my portfolio in early 2017, i stumbled into losses. Upon realizing that a change was necessary, I consulted a fiduciary advisor in 2020 and since then my $1.2m portfolio has gained 28% annually through restructuring and diversification using dividend equities, ETFs, mutual funds, and REITs.
great gains there! mind sharing details of your advisor pleas? i've started gaining more cash flow with my employment and looking at putting money into stocks and alternative assets that can help build wealth over time
Heather Ann Christensen is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment
Dumb it down just a little more. I almost understood what an ETF is
stock squared
Im still just as confused on what an ETF is as i was before I watched this. Thanks 😊
What are you confused about? An ETF is simply a fund that trades on an exchange like a stock does and which invests in a variety of stocks. That's all it is.
basically an etf is a basket of stocka that reflect an index like nifty. they can be traded as stocks, their value fluctuates throughout the day and their expense ratio is lower thean a mutual funds.
mainly it gives you the diversification of an index while providing the flexibility of a stock.
nicely explained, thanks
Finally some smart dude explaining ETF. Thank u :)
Whatever you do always have a plan of what to expect but prepare for risks, understanding this one information saved me from losses I wasn’t prepared for, opened an investment portfolio and stories started coming in till I found the right way
How can i know what to expect, so as not to make costly mistakes like you did, I hope you don't mind me asking
Stocks is actually a great investment and way to create multiple income sources from the proceeds, I have been in the market 3 years now and I have made my fair share of wealth over and over
@@denise9242 Learning that I needed a solid foundation and that involved expertise my fiduciary Mr Ravies, handles my portfolio enabling earn while I learn

Very Nice Presentation.
Beautiful video. We want more
Thank you for your insight.
ETFs are cute.
thank you mr. bloomberg, very cool!
Nicely explained.
It all just seems to me like everyone wants your hard earned cash for investment opportunities but the second you gain there are all kinds of risks to your gains ie: taxes fees etc then at the end of it all your left standing there with either a loss or small profit that’s not enough to change your life. Unless your born into it or the company itself reaps the bigger % off everyone’s investment
Great Video. Liked and Subscribed. 😃
Thank you sir information 🙏
Best video ever on ETFs
This was much easier to understand as compared to other videos
Well explained 💯
The music is very soothing
Great! And short!
Heard someone say the best season for a financial breakthrough is now, especially with inflation running at a four-decade high. I have approximately $750k stagnant in my port_folio that needs growth. What is the best way to take advantage of this downturn?
That’s right! Downturns provide plenty of opportunities for regular people to build wealth from the scratch. However, you may need to get some professional advice from an Invest-ment planner if you need an aggressive return.
@@MariusNatt Recessions are where millionaires are created. After my portfolio took a big hit in April, I was forced to employ the services of an Invest-ment-analyst who has not only accrued a profit of $250k for me since then but has also taught me how.
@@AshtonGrace I need guidance so i can salvage my port-folio due to the massive dips and come up with better strategies. How can i reach this advsor?
@@AaronTucker-th2nn My advisor is "Autumn Lynzi Smith" You can verify her and use her services if you require her services
@@AshtonGrace This recommendation is coming at the right time because i am literally grasping for straws atm! I looked her up online and scheduled a phone call with her.
love this explanation but what is security. is it like raw material or resource?
Beautifully animated.
Sweet video animation

Bloomsburg said WTF. LOL!
Daaaaaymn
Wtf...
On which software you make such type of video
Miccu Tech did you get an answer for this?
I guess not
@Analytical Gaming these channels don't really respond to anything
It’s a secret.

Can someone explain this explanation?
I get all this but one thing I don’t get is So he says one bonus is you don’t get taxed each year until you sell your gains. Am I missing something
Etfs are great
Like Billy Madison once said “I can understand 8 words in that book now.”
I can never understand why ETFs are passive.. can anyone help me explain? Comparing to MTFs..
Anyone please, how is this type of video created?
understandable!
so when you are trading online means you are buying ETFs ?
No.

Escape The Fate
After watching so many videos in 3-4 days, the video start felt like an explanation to a kid xdd after half of the video, 1 sentence explained everything :D
I clicked cause I said the same thing as the title right before I saw it 😂😂
If you can't hold it in your hand, you at the mercy of others
Wheres the catch?
+Drakotar The prices of ETFs can drop fast from fear and can lose value because it is a supply and demand commodity. Example of risk: Some one finds an amount equal to 5% of worlds gold in the ocean, then gold becomes less valuable and ETF drops in price. Hogs(Commodity ETF) contract a disease, ETF drops. ETFs are risky like any other stock but are more risky than stocks because a majority of ETFs focus on one asset/ area such as Natural Gas, Gold Mining, Oil, Real Estate. Stocks are less risky, because the companies are more diversified.
MrJtknight I see, thank you for your reply.
+MrJtknight Is that not the case even when buying a commodity itself? If I invested in either copper, or an copper ETF, both would reduce in value if large reserves of the metal were discovered.
You are right on the most part, but I have to correct you on one thing. ETF's are less risky than stocks. Where as stocks (one company) could go down (also affected by sentiment) an ETF often is a collection of more stocks, so the risk is spread more evenly. Even if people get scared of techcompanies, and your Tech-ETF is losing value, the risk is still smaller than investing in just one techcompany stock, such as snappchat.
@@MrJtknight Wrong. A single stock can drop much faster than an ETF that is made out of many different stocks.
Also, if you invest in a single sector ETF, say, Canadian banks, then yes it could drop like a rock. But if you invest in a well diversified ETF like the s&p 500 the risk is much lower.
I LOVE YOUUU GUYS
We see the upside of ETFs but what’s the downside
Dam quality
nice title for the vid.
oh...
You get a 'like' just for the video title alone lol
Nice

I learned about ETFs can you now teach me of DTF"S
So if you can buy a GOLD ETF doesn't that dilute the value of gold. Especially when theoretically there can be infinite etf's but the amount of gold is finite.
Thats why silver is so undervalued?
No, the ETF owns that gold. It's not virtual gold :)
No, it won't dilute the value of Gold because the number of Gold ETFs in existence doesn't affect the amount of Gold in existence.
ETF = early termination fee to 99.99% of Americans.
lol
What?
Can you short an ETF?
Basically your buying a portfolio of said type of investments
You’re*** have mercy.
Its safer to invest into a gold etf lol no wonder this world is srewed. The problem with the gld is that they say they have 1 billion ounces but trade 3 billion ounces. So i would say keep your gold
ETF is like MILF but less risky.
sounds like another way brokers can scam beginners traders.
Invest in food and water.
ETF is a WTF
Remember! We can learn anything we want with the right teacher. This is NOT the right teacher. Moving on.
How is it different from mutual funds?
much lower MERs and they are not actively managed -- There are management team now that are managing ETFs now - if you are interested AGF is one of them that offers this.
arul s All these damn acronyms!!!
arul s what’s an MER
.... 1:13 .... so, say you buy a 1000 dollars of a gold etf, and hold one share of a gold etf, equivalent to an ounce of gold.... what determines the price of that Gold ETF share ? Market supply and demand ? So, say the price of an ounce of gold is $500 on the gold market.... will that gold etf share price be $500 too? Or will it fluctuate as some buy, or sell gold etf shares ? Maybe the gold etf share you hold might be $200 or $700, even though in theory it is equivalent to a single ounce of gold. This educational video does not really answer that question, does it ?
The video doesn't answer that, but the fact is that since you aren't actually buying gold (the fund buys the gold) the share price of the ETF could be trading above or below the value of its investments at any particular time.
okey, i'm ready to listen , what's that again ?
Great. I bought gold. Or did I?
@I'mBatman : If everyone tries to exchange their paper gold in for the real thing all at the same time then they'll find out what the value of paper really is
What's the difference between index funds and ETFs? Are they the same thing, but different names?
In Index Fund you are buying all of the big companies in the stock market. In ETF you are not only buying stocks but a wide range of securities like bonds, commodities, oils and etc. In short in Index Fund your money is only expose to stocks while in ETF your money is expose to different kind of investment tool but you are buying them in a package. Isn't that nice?
Vanguard index funds and their corresponding ETFs are different share classes of the same identical investment. An index fund like mutual funds trade at day's end while an ETF can be purchased and sold just like a stock, many times a day.
"In Index Fund you are buying all of the big companies in the stock market." --- Misleading as an index fund might contain only the small companies in the stock market.
"Index Fund your money is only expose to stocks" ---- Incorrect as there are bond index funds.
"... it's [ETFs] for commodities rather than stocks.
" --- Wrong twice in the same sentence.
@@nathanieljosephgutierrez Not all ETFs do what you claim. I don't think you really understand what an ETF is.
Bitcoin ETF MOMENT BABY
So I should start an ETF, and
people will give me money
Well, yes?
Why the heck would anyone want to buy a Bitcoin ETF? Buying Bitcoin is more profitable. An ETF gives the broker the biggest piece of the pie (profits). Cryptocurrency right now can make money for everyone. Big money.
There currently is no Bitcoin ETF, at least not in the US. Perhaps Canada has one. I'm not sure. There is the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust that has been trying to get SEC approval to convert to an ETF but hasn't been approved yet. Don't ask me what the difference is between a 'Trust' and an 'ETF' though.
2:05 full of analogies to still not succinctly explain what ETFs are 😩
How can this robbery be legal?
How can there be more value in ETF than the whole US economy? what would happen if everyone cashed out their ETF? Would we run out of money to pay for that?
wut
This is a great youtube video about ETF theory. I have had Mr Reed Cooper manage my banking and it has been a successful investment.
can i have his contact information i am fully interested please
@@daleschaible2273 i just texted him on his whatsapp
( +44 7727717803 )
Mr Reed sounds so promising
i've been looking for a way to grow my passive income portfolio..How do i get to him?
Complicated a video
CONFUSING VIDEO!
Doesnt help at all when other coined terms are added to the explanation presuming everyone knpws what it is.
VERY BAD EXPLANATION. I thought I can get anything to learn, but this video is not aimed to explain wtf is ETF but a propaganda to lure people to become next victim of ETF. I prefer to view movies of MARGIN CALL, THE BIG SHORT and TOO BIG TO FAIL rather than watching this silly cheapstake 2.04 minutes ETF ads.
Why are ETFs bad? Explain please.
I hate my life
If you don’t get it maybe your not ready 🤷🏾♂️
“If an index fund and a stock got married and had a family their children would be etf’s” No, sorry, not a clue what he is talking about. Explain it in real life, tangible, man in the street way please.
like subprime.
Ha hahahahahahahahahaaaaan hahahahahaaaaa another colonial thievery scheme now I understand.
poor explanation. many irrelevant info
I’ve still no real idea what an etf is??? What a crappy video.
