Preface to all ETF posts: Just a quick overview this weekend of some general categories. You know the drill: click on any chart for a larger, easier-to-see version. I’ve read some folks complaining about how real estate funds are being annoyingly strong. That is true. I’m in IYR puts myself, and I feel this acutely. I do want to point out, however, that IYR in particularly has an odd habit of lagging the market sometimes. I remember so well earlier this year that the market really started falling, and IYR just ignored it completely – – until about a week later, when the wheels absolutely fell off and it “caught down” with everything else.
