Andres Rincon being interviewed on MoneyTalk Live.

Andres Rincon, Director and Head of ETF Sales and Strategy at TD Securities, returns to MoneyTalk Live offering his valued analysis of what's happening in the ETF market. In this episode, he discusses the widening investment gap between fixed income and equity ETFs. Andres also educates us about Buffer and Accelerator ETFs receiving attention among retirement communities as they can offer limited downside protection in exchange for limited upside gains. In addition to his answering viewer questions, we also see a preview of this month's Buyside Views at TD Securities.

Key Takeaways

  • The move into fixed income ETFs appears fed in part by concentration on cash management and high-interest savings ETFs which can offer low risk with reliable returns.
  • ETF fees are typically much lower compared to other investment spaces like mutual funds, but that doesn't mean giving up actively managed investments.
  • While there are currently no Canadian ETFs labelled for trending terms like AI or EV, Canada has a wide spectrum of ETFs offering exposure to these markets through computer chips and other secondary industries.
  • Outside of North America is an even wider selection of ETFs enabling investors to take advantage of moving markets including Japan and China.
