Morningstar Advisor - February/March 2010 - 17
Thoroughbreds perform better with blinders on. Investors don’t. In today’s economy, many people feel like they’re investing in the dark. So it’s time someone shed a little light on the matter. With State Street, you can choose from a stable of over 80 SPDR ® ETFs. Which means it’s easy to precisely match your investments to your investment strategy. Interested in Fixed Income? Gold? High-dividend stocks? Whatever the market segment, you get exactly what’s on the label. Nothing more, nothing less. For a different breed of ETF, visit spdrs.com. And see why wild horses couldn’t drag our customers away. Precise in a world that isn’t. Before investing, consider the funds’ investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. To obtain a prospectus or summary prospectus, which contains this and other information, call 1.866.787.2257 or visit www.spdrs.com. Read it carefully. ETFs, such as SPDR® S&P 500,® MidCap SPDR,® and Diamonds® trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk and will fluctuate in market value. There is no assurance or guarantee an ETF will meet its objective. SPDR S&P 500, MidCap SPDR, and Diamonds are issued by SPDR Trust, MidCap SPDR Trust, and Diamonds Trust respectively.
