Kaminsky's Call: ETFs Not the Safe Haven You Think |
CNBC - Nov. 8, 2010 - Contributing Editor: Gary Kaminsky
When I read Herb Greenberg's column, "Can An ETF Collapse?" I was intrigued. Becky Quick and I asked this very question of this past Friday's guest, Robert Ladd of LaddCap Value Advisors.
A money manager I respect for his intuitive market feel, Ladd was the perfect individual for follow-up to Herb's reporting. Asked whether ETF's (exchange-traded funds) are a safe haven for investors, Ladd responded, "Absolutely not." On the heels of Herb's report this didn't surprise me as much as what Ladd said next.
Essentially declaring ETF's tools for day traders, and taboo for long-term investors, Ladd opened the door for a future question to ponder. Are activists and/or traders trying to test this hypothesis now?
If this is the case, consider Herb's piece again. The mystery of who holds the components of an ETF if approximately a mere 17 percent is accounted for by the instrument's monitor, becomes a terrifying question.
