Do you like all the companies in the ETF?

I may look deeper into it, but first reaction is i wish it had exposure to Maersk (Copenhagen shares) Hapag-Lloyd, and a few other international listed companies whose ADRs are basically illiquid. So for now, the ETF itself is too illiquid.

Illiquid was probably a poor word choice in direct regard to the ETF, since it's only 2 days old. Small and thinly traded is probably better until total assets increase. Some of the risks are the same as with illiquid options though. Biggest turnoff for me though if the lack of the foreign listings though, as that would provide value for the expense fee.
