Question Dear Sir,
How can I find the stocks that make up an ETF? I would like to be able to see the all the companies that make the ETF.

Answer Dear Mr. Rasnake,
Thank you for the question. My suggestion would be to go the website of the ETFs that your are interested in and look for the regulatory filings such as the annual report. For example, Ishares have many ETFs and you can go to a section on their website called regulatory documents and then just click on the appropriate document to see a list of holdings.
