Exchange Traded Funds
Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are a basket of securities similar to mutual funds. However, they trade on exchanges (like stocks) and are only available for purchase during market hours: 8:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. CT, Monday through Friday except for stock market holidays. The trading price of an ETF is continually fluctuating throughout the day during trading hours.
Trading an ETF in your Millennium Account
Millennium Trust offers two ways for account holders to trade ETFs – online and by phone. Since Millennium Trust does not offer any investment advice, you are responsible for selecting the ETF you would like to purchase.
- To place a trade via phone, please call 1.800.258.7878, option 4 during normal trading hours.
- To trade online, you must have access to Millennium Trust Online and have requested trading access. If you do not currently have trading access and would like to add it, complete a web access request.
