TradingMarkets 7 ETFs You Need to Know for Wednesday

Monday’s historic sell-off led to dramatically oversold conditions for a wide number of exchange-traded funds, many of which are strongly higher late in trading on Tuesday.

Funds linked to stock markets overseas in places like Brazil and Asia were among today’s big gainers, as were leveraged and unleveraged financial ETFs – including
those limited to regional banks. In spite of Tuesday’s bullishness, there are relatively few overbought ETFs trading below their 200-day moving averages so far.

Here are 7 ETFs You Need to Know for Wednesday.

Up more than 6% late in trading on Tuesday, the ProShares Ultra Financials ETF, UYG
