Top 6 ETFs With Highest Returns in 3 Years: Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) is the only mutual fund category that is traded directly in the share market.
All other mutual funds, despite having a heavy equity portion, don’t trade directly in the stock market.
ETFs are passive funds that track an underlying index, asset, or commodity.
They come with a low expense ratio. Investors need a demat account to trade ETFs in the share market.
These funds can be bought and sold only during market hours, and their prices fluctuate like stocks during the session.
