In the same way that months ago one couldn't avoid articles promoting the wonders of converting to a Roth IRA, lately one can't open a personal finance magazine or browse the Web without coming across an article promoting ETFs.
There's this rather unfocused one in the New York Times.
And this one in Kiplinger.
I don't find any of the arguments persuasive (except perhaps the lower fees, but my Vanguard mutual fund expenses are already quite low). And warning bells go off when I read about how "you can bubble-proof the core of your portfolio" with ETFs. Am I alone in my reaction?
