Previous editions of the most searched ETFs have also seen plenty of appearances by gold and silver mining ETFs, though that trend ebbed a bit this week with some of the larger mining ETFs looking like they are consolidating before another run higher. However, the PureFunds ISE Junior Silver Small Cap Miners/Explorers ETF (NYSEArca: SILJ) made another appearance on the list.
Dividend ETFs continue to be actively searched by investors with a new leader emerging this week. The WisdomTree U.S. Dividend Growth Fund (NasdaqGM: DGRW) takes home top honors as this week’s most searched dividend ETF on ETF Trends followed by a familiar face, the Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (NYSEArca: VIG).
The SPDR Barclays Convertible Securities ETF (NYSEArca: CWB) was by the most searched bond ETF on the site this week. That is not surprising considering that we highlighted CWB as the best ETF option for investor’s looking to gain exposure to Tesla’s (NasdaqGS: TSLA) recently issued convertible bonds. CWB now has a 2.5% weight to Tesla convertibles. [State Street Convertible Bond ETF Features Tesla Bonds]
