A great look at November's ETF market, with "U.S. ETF assets under management" hitting "another record at $13.2 trillion..." insight.factset.com/u.s.-etf-month…

"To help distribute those ETFs, firms have increasingly added model portfolios. The top area where they’re building out models is now in active ETFs." @CapitalGroup @TRowePrice @GoldmanSachs @InvescoUS @BlackRock @Vanguard_Group thedailyupside.com/etf/industry-n…

In anticipation of the SEC allowing asset managers to create ETF share classes of an existing mutual fund, and the "potentially hundreds of new ETF listings" that may follow, @Nasdaq is "staffing up." bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

"I would say what’s really attractive is the exchange traded products. That’s exploding." dallasinnovates.com/txses-jeb-hens…
