      5 Things You May Not Know About ETFs - But Should
      Guys, not everyone who reads this site is already an "expert". Some of us are fairly new to investing and ETFs. Please forgive us.

      Anyway ... There is some interesting information in this article. For instance, given all the hype and press that ETFs have received in the last few years, I had no idea that mutual fund assets ($12 trillion) still dwarfed ETF assets ($.6 trillion).

      And I appreciated the size of the post. A lot of the contributors go on and on and don't say much--or worse, their content is just a big advertisement for their products or services. It's nice to see useful, "nuggetized" information without having to wade through a bunch of self-promotional dreck.

      Warren Buffett on Diversification
      Interesting article. It agrees with the following Buffet quote:

      Wide diversification is only required when investors do not understand what they are doing.
      -- Warren Buffet

      State Street Launches First International Treasury Bond ETF
      Just checked SSgA's site. Japanese bonds account for over 90% of this fund! What's up with that? Perhaps this isn't the broad-based international bond fund that many of us have been waiting for.
