The firm’s Rex FANG & Innovation Equity Premium Income ETF (FEPI) offers the kind of yield that would stop most people in their tracks: It yields 25.2% (not a typo!) as I write this.That’s obviously unsustainable, and the main risk with a fund like FEPI is that its portfolio consists entirely of 15 tech stocks, including Tesla (TSLA), Salesforce.com (CRM) and Amazon.com (AMZN).

The Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF $MAGS is probably the best way to track them. After a 17% pullback from the highs, price is now testing its breakout level from last July. This is a logical place for buyers to step in and repair some of the damage. But more importantly, a cluster of key technical levels are stacking up here. Let’s break it down:
ETF assets in the U.S. grew by 28% in 2024 to end the year at $10.36 trillion, driven both by market appreciation and a calendar year record $1.12 trillion of net inflows. Growth-oriented cyclical themes like crypto and the “Magnificent 7” dominated the best-performing ETF categories based on total returns in 2024.The Hashdex Bitcoin ETF (DEFI), which can have both spot and futures-based bitcoin...
Here's what stocks have done since then: These are historic returns that have rarely been seen throughout stock market history. It's been practically straight up. The S&P500 is up almost 40%, while the Nasdaq100 is up over 45%. Financials and Communications are each up over 50%.Consumer Discretionary, Industrials and Technology are also major leaders during this period.
This is on my mind lately when I check in with Bitcoin, as represented by this chart of the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF $IBIT: I've been patiently building a bullish position in $IBIT since the beginning of the year, waiting for this range to be busted on the upside. The last five trading days have been especially frustrating for me, as the Bitcoin and $IBIT charts have been consolidating tightly...
The Range Nuclear Renaissance Index ETF ( NUKZ ) outperformed other ETFs this week, up about 15.7%. Components of that ETF showing particular strength this week include shares of Oklo ( OKLO ), up about 72% and shares of Nuscale Power ( SMR ), up about 43% on the week.
SPMO enjoyed a one-year return as of January 15, 2025, of 46.8%, handily beating the broader market. This factor ETF adopts a common-sense approach: find large-cap stocks that have a recent history of strong price performance and focus in on them narrowly. The fund aims to identify 100 S&P stocks that have outperformed their peers in the last year, excluding the most recent month, after...
American Century Focused Dynamic Growth ETF: Strong Performance and Non-Transparent
FDG returned 47.3% in the year leading to January 15, 2025, a strong recommendation for the fund's somewhat unusual approach. This ETF is a so-called active non-transparent fund, meaning that the managers of the fund do not necessarily have to disclose their specific holdings as regularly as for traditional ETFs....
Random Stat of The Day $SPY - 6 of the 11 S&P 500 sectors (~55%) are up everyday this week (so far). Combined they make up ~32% of the index which is roughly the same weight as Technology $XLK . $XLF + $XLI + $XLE + $XLU + $XLRE + $XLB = $XLK
This week, we saw a lot of breakdowns failing, and shaking traders out before ripping higher. We jumped on the opportunity and put a new trade on the Regional Banks ETF $KRE. After hitting fresh two-month lows last Friday, it’s reversed higher and trapped the bears this week. The bounce is resulting in a textbook “scoop n’ score” setup—just as momentum is shifting in our favor. The best trades...
This accomplishment highlights a growing investor interest in digital assets and positions BlackRock alongside market leaders such as Vanguard's S&P 500 ETF (VOO) and iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV), which took the first and second spots respectively.
KraneShares Launches Global Carbon Strategy ETC (KRBN) on London Stock Exchange Following the successful listings on the Borsa Italiana and Deutsche Börse Xetra, we are pleased to announce the launch of the KraneShares Global Carbon Strategy ETC (KRBN) on the London Stock Exchange. KRBN is intended to track the level of its reference index, the S&P Global Carbon Credit Index, which offers broad...
Last but not least, here is Materials $XLB: After collapsing to its lowest level since February, XLB is soaring higher this week. What looked like a clean break below a well-tested level of former resistance, has now morphed into a bear trap. We’re one green candle away from an epic scoop n’ score for materials. The takeaway here is simple. These are three of the worst-performing sectors since...
Next is Health Care $XLV: This one was also sitting around fresh 52-week lows with momentum at an extreme oversold level recently. Bears had their chance to knock it down and complete the top, but couldn’t get the job done. XLV has fired higher off the breakdown level over the past few weeks.
Here’s Energy $XLE: After exploring a breakdown to lows not seen since Q1 of last year, bulls stepped in and reversed it. XLE shook below the double-top breakdown level for a few sessions before digging in and ripping higher. This failed move has already resulted in a fast move higher. XLE has gone from an extreme oversold reading to just about overbought in less than a month.
The STKD Bitcoin & Gold ETF (BTGD) gives you exposure to Bitcoin and gold… with a twist.For every $1 you invest in BTGD, it gives you $1 of exposure to Bitcoin and $1 of exposure to gold.In other words, it’s a leveraged play on these two anti-dollars. So, be smart here and don’t bet the farm.If Bitcoin and gold rise at same time, that two-to-one leverage will amplify your gains. But if they...
The JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income Fund (JEPQ) and the JPMorgan Equity Premium Income Fund (JEPI) are both covered-call funds. They buy stock and sell options to help generate income. Both funds boast yields much higher than a traditional Nasdaq or S&P 500 fund.
It's been a tale of mixed signals since December. While many sectors and industries are demonstrating resilience, others are still lagging behind. Lots of messy action in the past month. $SMH is the best example, stuck in this range: Click the chart to enlarge it.
I've got a long-term play ongoing with the largest-capped stocks in China via the FXI iShares Large-Cap ETF. When I got into the trade on November 6th, me and my All Star Charts Analysts were of the mind that if we got rotation into Chinese stocks, what might result could be a trade that makes our year. We were loving how the sector was holding up in early November following a monster breakout in...
Historically, when these stocks trend higher, it reflects an environment conducive to risk-seeking behavior. On the flip side, sustained selling pressure on them tends to indicate a more cautious market stance. When we overlay the SPDR S&P Homebuilders ETF $XHB with the S&P 500 $SPY, they typically follow the same path. Homebuilders often act as a leading indicator for the broader market. The...
