Top 5 ETFs With Highest Returns in 1 Year: Can mutual funds be traded in a share market? We know that mutual funds are pooled investments, where the fund manager buys a bunch of stocks or invests in an asset, commodity, etc. But an Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) is a unique category of mutual funds that can be traded in a stock market like the shares of other companies. Unlike, the price of other mutual fund NAVs, whose price is determined once a day, the price of an ETF keeps changing during the trading session. ETFs can be traded only during a trading session and an investor seeking ETF investments need to have a demat account. ETFs follow an index, asset, or commodity, etc. Here, we take you through the top 5 ETFs that have given highest returns (CAGR) in the 1-year time frame.
