Well, iShares, for example, has several and Vanguard has some too...they're known as "accumulation ETFs"...but they trade on foreign exchanges like the LSE, not (apparently) on U.S. exchanges too like I thought.
So I apologize for saying you were wrong, since, in regards to the U.S. exchanges anyway, you apparently were not. In fact, to make up for it, I'm sending you a check for the entire balance in my E*Trade account. (Okay, I don't own an E*Trade account, but it's the thought that counts, right?
)
The fact remains, however, that ETF dividends--even in the U.S.--are paid
net of expenses (as I mentioned earlier and as alluded to in the snippet you posted from the AMEX), so shareholders are often left with less than the full amount of dividends anyway.
BTW, whoever wrote that misleading Nasdaq characterization should be forced to go through grade school again--wearing a "give me a wedgie" sign on his/her back.
