MacRandy (and Tom),

Thanks for posting about the Yahoo link on ETF'S and thanks Tom for your post about ETF’s. Over the last year or so I have bought a number of them and I think they are a great way to get exposure to various sectors of the market and at the same time have good diversification. There are a lot of advantages in buying them as compared to buying mutual funds. I don’t plan to buy any more mutual funds and I am reducing the number of individual securities in my portfolio and putting that money into ETF’s.

Maybe they aren’t as exciting as individual stocks but at my age I need to be able to sleep. :)

So far I have only bought some of the more common ones like SPY, DIA, IWS, IWN, EFA and RQI.

I hope to see more opinions on ETF’s.

Dan
