The Daily's Verdict

This author has a mixed reputation for journalistic standards. It is advisable to fact-check, scrutinize for bias, and check for conflicts of interest before relying on the author's reporting.

Bias

85%

Examples:

  • The article implies that lower fees are better than higher fees without providing any context or information about how these funds perform over time. This is misleading because some ETFs may charge higher fees but have a better track record of returns for their investors.
  • The article presents the fee charged by different ETFs as a way to differentiate them from each other when in fact they are all competing for investors' money and therefore should not be presented as such. This is deceptive because it implies that lower fees are better than higher fees without providing any context or information about how these funds perform over time.
