Hello All,
I have an account at Vanguard and have been considering converting my index mutual funds to the coordinating ETFs.
Is there any downside to doing this? These are held within IRAs.
(I am retired am not buying mutual funds/ contributing to an IRA on a monthly basis anymore.)
Does it matter whether I do the conversions when the market is on an upswing or downswing, or it doesn't matter. (I don't think that it should but maybe I'm missing something.)
Is this a simple matter of clicking on exchange funds in the brokerage account.
Feedback is appreciated.
Thank you.
