Podcast listeners this week will hear an in depth discussion of the Aerospace/Defense sector from Gary with an emphasis on the PowerShares Aerospace & Defense (PPA) fund and the iShares Dow Jones US Aerospace & Defense (ITA) ETF. Additionally Gary points out some scenarios in which these ETFs could do well in the coming months and could even bolster your portfolio in a market downturn. Finally, Gary turns his attention to large cap Exchange-Traded funds (ETFs) such as the iShares Russell 1000 (IWB) ETF, the S&P 500 SPDR Trust (SPY) and the iShares S&P 100 (OEF) ETF. During this part of the podcast Gary focuses on what investors should look for in these ETFs and why some have shown better performance than the rest.
