ETF's:
Fixed basket Trades like a stock, continuously priced throughout the day Transparency Low fees Broad index or sector Long or short
Mutual funds:
Funds pooled together Professionally managed Priced at the end of the day Decisions made for you Only know what stocks are in it quarterly Don't need a brokerage account, can go direct to the fund Higher fees Can cause unwanted capital gains Manager is paid to beat the indexes, but they don't always accomplish it. Can invest regular deductions from your bank account ie. $25/mo.
