Launch activity slowed to just seventeen new product introductions in November, but the year-to-date count of 292 is enough to clinch the title for most new ETPs in a calendar year. The previous record of 291 was established four years ago in 2007. The new monthly additions consisted of thirteen ETFs and four ETNs, bringing current listings to 1,376 (1,176 ETFs and 200 ETNs). Actively managed ETFs remain at just 39, or less than 3% of the total count.<\/p>\n

Assets under management slipped by 1.6% but held above the $1 trillion mark. Trading activity declined 15% for ETFs and 4% for ETNs. Dollar volume averaged $78.8 billion per day.<\/p>\n

The number of ETFs averaging more than $1 billion in daily trading activity (the Billion Dollar Club) dropped from 18 to 13 and accounted for about 66% of all ETP dollars traded. This is down from 70% last month, so other products are seeing their share of the action increase. Products averaging more than $100 million of trading per day decreased from 89 to 76 yet still accounted for 91.1% of dollar volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
