An ETF is an investment fund that you can buy and sell like a stock. Instead of a single company, ETFs mix together different assets, such as stocks, bonds, commodities, or currencies, and divide its ownership up into shares.

What are the disadvantages of ETFs?

Sometimes, a brokerage might still change commissions on ETF trades. Commission fees plus fund management fees can potentially make trading ETFs pricier than trading standalone stocks.

Are ETFs good investments?

ETFs are a popular way to achieve relatively cheap and easy portfolio diversification within an investment strategy. Instead of owning a handful of stocks, investors have access to hundreds of companies.

How do you start investing in an ETF?

SoFi Invest will let you search for most ETFs traded on public exchanges - all from the app. Or, check out our current ETF collection and see what matches your interest.

What is the difference between an ETF and a mutual fund?

ETFs are more accessible than Mutual Funds, making them popular for retail investors. Like stocks, ETFs trade on an open market exchange, so it is possible to buy and sell ETFs throughout the day. Mutual funds trade only once a day, after the market is closed. There are few other differences between ETFs and Mutual Funds that may be more applicable to you.

How do you choose an ETF to invest in?

The ETF market is very diverse today but much of it reflects its roots in trying to capture a broad swathe of large public equities. SoFi offers affordable ETFs across diverse sectors new investors can invest in a bunch of stocks-for a fraction of the cost.

Are ETFs good for beginners?

ETFs are typically easier to trade with prices changing by the minute throughout the day. They also on average have lower fees than mutual funds. If a new investor is unsure about particular stocks, but wants the flexibility of trading with exposure to the market, an ETF may be an option.

Are ETFs riskier than stocks?

ETFs are commonly understood to be slightly less risky than stocks because they are a small portfolio or multiple investments. So, the volatility that may be seen in a single stock will be less impactful to the overall collection. However, investors should still understand risk as a factor with any type of investment.
