    Sometimes called a “wrapper,” an ETF is a collection of securities that can be invested in stocks, bonds, currencies, and commodities. Most ETFs select one area of the market and model their collection around it; this builds a theme and show buyers what the ETF specializes in. ETFs are purchased through a single ticker symbol.
