Types of Exchange Traded Funds (ETF)Index ETFs are exchange traded mutual funds set up to track the major indices. Examples include the Standard & Poor’s 500 Depository Receipts (SPDR) and the NASDAQ 100 Index (QQQ) exchange traded mutual funds. Index ETFs are hardly managed and available at very low costs totally at most 0.20 percent per year. Sector ETFs are exchange traded mutual funds that track specific industry sectors.
