Hi folks.

Welcome to our new ETF blog, which we've provisionally named Basis Pointing.

Here, in true bloggish fashion, we'll talk relatively free-form about all things ETF, indexing, and money-management. The ETF world is as wild-and-wooly as ever. Therefore, we'll devote a good bit of time and attention to sussing-out the latest developments, such as new ETF listings, registrations of notable products, and other matters big and small.

We hope you'll find it useful!

So, away we go.
