Technically, but they extend ownership. An ETF is a different type of abstraction. Which you already know because you spoke about that abstraction in your original comment, so why play stupid now?

I have no clue what you mean by 'extend ownership', and it's supposed to be different from what ETFs are doing.

An ETF typically holds the underlying assets, and you own a part of the ETF.
