LISLE, Ill., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Christian Magoon, founder of Magoon Capital and a recognized industry thought leader on finance and market issues, recently co-chaired the successful "ETF 360 Conference: Investing Strategies for Advisors."  The conference provided advisors with new insights into the evolving marketplace for exchange traded funds as many advisors become increasingly sophisticated in their use of these investment products.

"The dramatic growth of ETFs has opened new markets to advisors and their clients, while advancing the types of investment strategies and tactics available for the average portfolio," said Mr. Magoon. "ETF 360 represented a tremendous forum for discussion, and I was very pleased to participate as co-chair."

The summit was hosted by Financial Planning, On Wall Street and Bank Investment in New York and attracted more than 275 participants. Mr. Magoon moderated two panel discussions, "Hedging Your Portfolio: Maximum Impact Strategies for Total Return," and "Emerging Markets: An Explosion of Choice."

"I look forward to continuing to participate in events such as the ETF 360 Conference and partnering with industry leaders to help advisors and investors obtain optimal results."
