juniors vs seniors

Discussion in 'ETFs' started by econometrics, Dec 6, 2011.

  1. any ETFs similar to GDXJ, GDX? Oil seniors vs oil juniors???
     
  2. USO is the standard oil ETF. UCO is one of the 2x ETFS.

    I dont know exactly what a "junior" etf is.

    Hope it helps

    "junior" as junior gold mining companies
     
  4. Sure there are - just spend 10 minutes on Google typing in things like "silver junior ETF" or "silver explorer ETF"

    I think there is one more classification but there generally are Seniors, Juniors & Explorers.

    For example:
    (gold) GLD/GDX >> GDXJ >> GLDX
