How Much Does an ETF Truly Cost?

In the past decade, investors have started to factor in the cost of a product when they make decisions. Issuers have responded by lowering expense ratios, but there are other factors that can contribute to a product’s total cost. Tracking error and trading expense can also impact the total cost of a given ETF, for example.
