Monday, March 1, 2010 WSJ Worries Over Liquidity in Bond ETFs Fundsters interested in the exchange-traded fund (ETF) side of the business, particularly fixed income ETFs, may want to take a look at the Monday morning "Fund Track" column. The Wall Street Journal's Sam Mamudi highlights issues with bond ETFs trading at premiums or discounts to NAV, and draws a link from liquidity issues in the underlying bonds themselves (versus more liquid equities). The WSJ highlights the woes of the SPDR Barclays Capital High Yield Bond ETF and turns to Matt Hougan, managing director of ETF analytics for Index Publications; David Levy, portfolio manager at advisory firm Kenjol Capital Management; and Matthew Tucker, head of fixed-income investing strategy at BlackRock's ETF-focused iShares unit, as experts.
