Be wary during volatile periods or when there are major events that affect markets. Market volatility can cause the prices of an ETF’s underlying securities to move sharply, which can in turn cause the ETF’s shares to have wider bid-ask spreads or larger premiums or discounts. Limit orders may be beneficial in such situations because of the price protection they provide. A US corporate bond ETF’s end-of-day market price is calculated as the midpoint of the best bid and offer at 4 p.m., US Eastern time, while the underlying bonds in Vanguard ETFs are valued at their bid prices (Figure 1). This pricing difference results in an inherent premium since the midpoint of the bid-ask spread on the ETF is typically going to be higher than the bid price of the underlying bonds. Unlike single stocks, which have a fixed supply of shares, new ETF shares can be created and existing shares redeemed based on investor demand.

When the market hits the stop price your stop order becomes a limit order, at the limit price you specified. When you place a stop-limit order, your priority is trying to limit a loss or protect a profit without the unpredictability of a market order. It’s a common misconception that an ETF’s liquidity is best gauged by its average daily volume (ADV). The organization of assets on a balance sheet based on how long the asset will take to liquidate. For instance, cash would be listed at the top and then would be followed by any other asset that could quickly be turned into cash.

A common misconception is that ETFs with lower average daily volume (ADV) are not as liquid as others in the marketplace. ADV is generally a good gauge of liquidity for a single stock because the number of its outstanding shares is generally fixed. However, ETF shares can be created or redeemed through an authorised participant, so the liquidity of the ETF’s underlying securities is what matters most. When the underlying securities are difficult to trade, it can result in a wider bid-ask spread for the ETF. If you’re a typical investor, your “on screen” view is probably limited to what’s available through public financial websites. This means you’ll have access to an ETF’s highest bid and lowest ask, but you won’t be able to see all the quotes in an ETF’s order book.

This activity is sometimes not reflected in the volume data provided by stock exchanges. Those market makers might have inventories or can use their balance sheet to fill ETF orders. The data collection for this study predates the referendum on the United Kingdom’s membership of the European Union on 23 June 2016. The outcome may well have serious implications for corporate bond markets, in particular the sterling market, but also for the euro and other markets. In many ways, this makes the findings and conclusions of this study even more relevant, as we enter a period of even greater economic uncertainty, and when market efficiency and liquidity will, potentially, be tested.
