A common approach to investing in the stock market is buying shares through an investment manager with money coming in every day that is then split amongst the investment group based on how many shares they bought. As the value of each share grows or decreases, an investor can cash out at any time or buy more shares knowing what they'll be worth. It's a system that has been around for about a century and provides options in buying a variety of assets like bonds, commodities and stocks.EFTs are like a mutual fund where investors come together in a pool that has a diverse portfolio within a specific part of the stock market - providing the option to invest in a combination of any and all types of aforementioned assets, as well as other currencies. Shares act as a proportional interest - a rate that is based on what is purchased and is applied to the price.In a lot of ways, an ETF is much like a mutual fund except for the key word "exchange." An ETF allows investors to buy shares straight from any type of brokerage account similar to how one would buy shares in a stock. This can be done by placing an order with an account with companies like Schwab or Fidelity.
