Growth in managed futures ETFs-- Jan 2022: 5 ETFs, $329 mil AUM Feb 2025: 9 ETFs, $2.87 bil AUM $DBMF represents about half those assets, followed by $CTA then $KMLM
BlackRock just launched its first* active liquid alts ETF, $ISMF, which is a managed futures strategy managed by its BlackRock Systematic team. *I'm not sure why $ALT, which closed in May 2013, doesn't count as the first.

Our follow-up article on the SSGA Apollo Private Credit ETF is live. It started out as a review of the SEC's letter, but turned into something more substantial. We unpack nuances and new concerns, but also highlight how it might work out just fine. morningstar.com/funds/will-s…

The markets are doing what they always do: engaging in a relentless process of price discovery. Sometimes that process seems straightforward, when the incoming knowledge seems obvious and easily discounted (as it seemed to be last November). But at other times the news flow can be chunkier and more difficult to absorb, as the market tries to find its bearings while the ground is continuously shifting beneath our feet. The past few weeks have felt more like the latter. The result? The markets are churning without making much progress. linkedin.com/pulse/chaos-ord…

The SEC seemingly accepted SSGA/Apollo's private credit etf. Ticker PRIV, 0.70% fee. Private credit may range between 10% and 35% of assets, but can be lower or HIGHER. No 15% cap on illiquids. We were on this possibility from beginning but still very surprised it was approved.

US ETFs added $90 billion net flows in January. Active ETFs contributed nearly half that (!!) as they race toward $1 trillion in net assets. @TheETFObserver with these ETF trends and more: spr.ly/6014IExDe

My colleagues @MstarArmour, @TheETFObserver, and Hyunmin Kim just published our semi-annual “Active/Passive Barometer” report. Lots of good data and charts on active and passive fund performance trends, as usual. 👍 spr.ly/6019UNmDZ

Fun dose or irony in today's Rekenthaler Report: Oil stocks slumped and clean energy stocks rallied during the Trump administration -- trends that reversed during the Biden administration
