ETFs in Europe are on track to break last year's record net flows of €160 billion as we're already at €90 billion and not even half way through the year. @thetrinianalyst
ETFs have good chance of breaking annual flow record of $910b (curr at $390b).. 1) they've exceeded the avg flows for every month so far (see chart) 2) H2 months tend to be bigger, esp Dec 3) In years where $SPY has gained >10% in H1 it ended w avg gain of 28%, and when $SPY is up big so are flows. Anything can happen of course, but the math behind this call is solid.. via @psarofagis blinks.bloomberg.com/news/st…

The Massive Rebalance is Happening (I'm pretty sure) Back of napkin math means $XLK will have to sell about $12.6 billion worth of $AAPL and buy about $10.9 billion worth of $NVDA at current prices. This trade will occur on June 21. Need confirmation from S&P/SPDR though.
We are neck and neck coming into the close on a simple market cap basis. They are within $1 billion in value. Aka they are within 0.03% of each others value If this holds for the next 90 minutes I'm pretty sure we will see a $24 billion shakeup in $XLK's holdings next week

A potential fee war could break out in Hong Kong over these #Bitcoin & #Ethereum ETFs. Harvest coming in hot with a full fee waiver and the lowest fee at 0.3% after waiver. Tables are from my colleagues @RebeccaSin_SK & @thetrinianalyst!

$IBIT inflow streak now 71 days which has it officially in the Top 10 all time after passing the ETF One Hit Wonder $JETS (remember JETSanity?). Also passed $BND and $VEA which are cash vacuum cleaners. Lot of mountain still left to climb tho. h/t @thetrinianalyst

Nice look at where all the trading is happening for the spot bitcoin ETFs.. off exchange is huge.
#Shorts: The Big Three take 88% of the new Spot Bitcoin volumes, while JP Morgan Securities dominates off-exchange trades -- evidenced by FINRA's ADF reporting infrastructure.

Happy 50 Straight Days of Inflows to all who celebrate.. Here's look at top ETFs by 'active' inflow streaks, $IBIT and $FBTC on top, shows how weird 50 days is (and unheard of for new etf, altho long ways to beat all time record of 160 days set by $JEPI) via @thetrinianalyst

$IBIT and $FBTC have now taken in cash for 49 straight days, something only 30 other ETFs have ever done (and none of them did it right out of gate). Among active streaks they 4th after $COWZ $CALF (which are over 100 days, damn) and $SDVY. Great chart from @thetrinianalyst

New from me on how conquering gold ETFs could be too easy a goal for the spot bitcoin ETF.. the early flows and volume are just overwhelming, sets strong foundation for growth. Ok to think bigger now.

Another month, another record haul for $CALF, which is on a 46 month flow streak. No small cap ETF has taken in more cash in the past 12mo, impressive feat for an mid-level issuer in category includes Vgrd, Blk and DFA/Avantis from our upcoming Outliers note ht @thetrinianalyst

Yeah, this shouldn’t be bid/ask spread for a US ETF. That isn’t allowed by the exchanges under Reg NMS. It could be discount to NAV I am assuming this is the revert back to NAV trade, unwinding. Given it was trading at a discount, moving to an ETF should close that discount.

Replying to @EricBalchunas
I think you've 100% nailed it. I suspect a lot of this may even be negotiated trades: "I have 10k GBTC to swap to BITB" and market makers are packaging the pricing across pairs. (Not impossible to tease out by running all the tapes ... i'll poke at it if i have time later, love this stuff).

Here’s another one showing Day One vs Day Two volume by ETF and time of day. Notice the middle of the day got stronger on Day Two, that’s good sign of organic usage vs day one being heavy on pre-lined up volume via @thetrinianalyst

🚨BREAKING🚨 Bitcoin ETFs Likely Approved by the SEC It certainly looks like the #Bitcoin ETF Approval order had hit the SEC website but the link is no longer working. That said, this document looks accurate to me. sec.gov/files/rules/sro/nyse…

Meet the world's first billion dollar single stock ETF: $TSLL, which tbh kinda stunned became so popular it's just 1.5x exposure. That said, less than half the aum is flows, most is appreciation. It made our July Outliers list bc $200m in flows via @thetrinianalyst
