Market. Last week there was a big jump in ETF trading volume during the selloff. People were feeling quite fearful. ETF was almost 50% of trading in the US, but stayed the same in Canada. ETFs are traded on exchanges just like stocks and can even be shorted. They can also be optioned. ETFs can lend out their stock holding within their fund to short sellers and this can create a yield for an ETF when its holdings do not pay a yield.
