On This Episode:
When it comes to investing, mutual funds and ETFs are two of the more popular options people will choose from. But which is better, and does it really matter? Today Ryan will host a roundtable discussion with Ron Wyatt, CFP®, CIMA®, CPWA® and Nick Lewandowski, CFA®, CFP® to answer some of the most common questions people have when trying to build their portfolio with either mutual funds or ETFs.
Both mutual funds and ETFs offer diversification, meaning your investment is spread across multiple companies, reducing the risk associated with investing in a single stock. However, the way they are traded, their costs, and their tax efficiencies differ significantly.
