ETRACS To Ring The Opening Bell Of The New York Stock Exchange

UBS Investment Bank today announced that the ETRACS team, Dennis Gartman and Mark Fisher will ring the Opening Bell of the NYSE this morning to mark the recent successful launches of the ETRACS Fisher-Gartman Risk On ETN (Ticker: ONN) and the ETRACS Fisher-Gartman Risk Off ETN (Ticker: OFF). The November 30 ^th, 2011 launch of ONN established an all-time, opening-day trading volume record for a new ETN*, highlighting investors’ interest in this ETN.

“With correlation between asset classes and across geographic regions remaining high, and continued volatility a very real possibility, investors recognize the value in being able to execute comprehensive ‘risk on’ or ‘risk off’ trades quickly and cheaply through these ETNs,” said Christopher Yeagley, Managing Director and US Head of Equity Structured Products.

ETRACS ETNs are senior unsecured notes issued by UBS AG (“UBS”), are traded on NYSE Arca, and can be bought and sold through a broker or financial advisor. An investment in ETRACS ETNs is subject to a number of risks, including the risk of loss of some or all of the investor’s principal, and is subject to the creditworthiness of UBS.
