Recovery of SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Explor & Prodtn ETF Losses

Have you suffered losses investing in SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Explor & Prodtn ETF?  If so, the securities attorneys of The White Law Group may be able to help you recover your losses in a FINRA arbitration claim against the brokerage firm that recommended the investment.

SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Explor & Prodtn ETF is an exchange-traded fund.  The investment seeks to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the total return performance of an index derived from the oil and gas exploration and production segment of a U.S. total market composite index.  In seeking to track the performance of the S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production Select Industry Index, the fund employs a sampling strategy.  It generally invests substantially all, but at least 80%, of its total assets in the securities comprising the index.  The index represents the oil and gas exploration and production industry group of the S&P Total Market Index (“S&P TMI”).  The fund is non-diversified.  SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Explor & Prodtn ETF is down 29.44% year-to-date.

Commodity ETFs can be extremely complex and risky.  They are only suitable for wealthy, sophisticated retail investors or institutional investors.

Brokerage firms that sell such products are required to perform adequate due diligence on the investments to ensure a reasonable likelihood of success, and to evaluate whether the investments are suitable in light of the client’s age, net worth, investment experience, and investment objectives.  Firms that fail to perform adequate due diligence, or that make unsuitable recommendations, can be held responsible for losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.
