Creating Portfolios with ETFs : Combining ETFs with Stocks and Mutual Funds
Stock and Mutual Fund investors may also look to ETFs to create “core/satellite” portfolios that include different investment products. Investors using mutual funds may look to ETFs to gain lower cost exposure to specific geographic areas, sectors or strategies.
