Some Of The Hottest ETFs In May (DRN, EUO, URE, TNA, EPV, DPK)
June 4th, 2010
Below are the 20 hottest ETFs at the close on May 28th, based on the 6 month performance. These are not ’buy’ recommendations or aggregate portfolios for investment. My favorite way to use this list is as a) to get a sense for the intermediate trends and b) as potential short-term trading opportunities (long or short), although I tend not to use leveraged funds.
If you are comfortable using your own technical analysis that is the preferred way. Trend lines and support/resistance levels are some of the simplest and most powerful tools for analyzing price charts. An investor could also use proprietary trading signals combined with risk management techiniques such as those I profiled in-depth here. Despite the market pullback last month, the list still has some levered long equity based ETFs in the small cap and real estate realm along with short ETFs, primarily focused on Europe. It will be interesting to see the list at the start of next month…
