Could you elaborate on the concept of an Exchange Traded Note (ETN)? As an investor with an interest in financial instruments, I'm curious about the underlying mechanism of an ETN. Specifically, how does it differ from a traditional bond or an exchange-traded fund (ETF)? What are the key risks associated with investing in ETNs? And how do they typically perform in different market conditions? I'd appreciate a concise yet comprehensive explanation of this financial product.

Unlike traditional investments, ETNs offer exposure to various asset classes and strategies that are often not readily accessible through other means.

ETFs, particularly those linked to the S&P 500 Index, provide investors with a diversified portfolio of the largest and most successful American companies.
