Tuesday, December 24, 2013 There's Not Enough Love in the World…for Smart Beta Have you gone out and hugged your ETFs? Apparently, not enough people are showing these products love, according to Brendan Conway of Barrons'. In particular, skittish investors have still yet to embrace the stock market rally, according to data from Niels Jensen of Absolute Return Partners. This translates into popularity for stability-loving products like the PowerShares S&P 500 Low Volatility Portfolio (SPLV) and iShares MSCI USA Minimum Volatility ETF (USMV). However. riskier kinds of products like the PowerShares S&P 500 High Beta Portfolio and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF have been shunned.
