The Market Is Investing In ETF Creativity

The performance of current ETFs and macro headwinds have been a boost to WisdomTree but a recent product announcement could shift things further.

The independent rises of smart-beta ETFs and currency-hedged products have been a revolution within the space. Investors are capturing more returns by quantitatively leveraging factors in their favor. WisdomTree recently disclosed that they will be the first to combine the two approaches and attempt to increase investor yield by timing currency hedges to minimize loss and maximize gain. (Smart-Beta Currency-Hedged ETFs)

The overall trajectory of WisdomTree can be applied to the growth of ETFs as an investment vehicle. The market will continue to demand new and innovative ways to capture more returns. ETFs are in a great position to be the way they get that done.

WisdomTree recently announced dividends, which you can find below, if you’d like to see how their finds are performing.
