An ETF, or Exchange Traded Fund, is an investment vehicle combining stocks and mutual funds features. ETFs consist of a basket of securities, including stocks, bonds, or commodities, and are traded on stock exchanges like individual stocks. One primary advantage of ETFs is their diversification, providing exposure to a wide range of assets in a single transaction, which helps mitigate risks and reduce downside potential. #Investing #ETFs #Diversification
