Our Exit Strategy For The South Africa ETF (EZA)

Well, we’re calling it quits on the iShares MSCI South Africa ETF (EZA). Why? The risk/reward ratio no longer looks beneficial to us. When we make a decision to invest in an ETF, we don’t go in blindly.

Know What You Own! ETF Deathwatch for February 2020

“The ETF Deathwatch decreased in size in February. Four exchange-traded products (“ETPs”) were added to the list, and 35 funds were removed. Twelve of those funds were removed due to increased health and 23 were due to asset managers closing their funds. The major U.S. equity indexes lost more than 10% in the span of a week in late February, so the low number of additions to the Deathwatch in February comes as a surprise.”
