CArl, this charge was reported on CNBC Friday too. that there was a lot of selling of the financials ETFs. Now, I understand that if the financial ETFs own financial and insurance stocks, they will go down because of the lower pricing of the stocks that make up the index (ETF). But why would that selling of the ETFS cause pressure itself on the underlying stocks? I thought ETFs were like closed end funds, a finite number of shares were issues and traders/investors bought or sold each others shares? am i missing something? tia. larry
