Look at this space, mark this date and mark this URL. This is one that we will probably return within next year or two. Because as has been the case in each cycle of the previous stock market (at least the ones I have seen since the 1980s), there are events and occurrences that, at that time, do not receive much attention. But some time later, merchants would like to have done so.

And so it is with the Dan Iives Wedbush AI Revolution ETF (IVE). The fund was launched in early June and seems to have had around $ 60 million in initial assets for launch.
As we see below, an end of the month proxy for AUM was approximately 8 times that figure of the first days.
As of Tuesday, Iives assets under management had increased to $ 750 million. That is a great victory for Mr. Iives, who has become a kind of cult figure as a technological analyst that identifies solid actions in his sector and uses coats and sports shirts that cannot be forgotten soon. As they say, “things you don’t see at the bottom of the market.”
Dan Iives is not the concern here. Ironically, starting outside the University in HBO, not in a brokerage firm, has made several stops on the “sales side” of the business, and the launch of Iives is more a testimony of its visibility of the media, after sustained efforts in a market area where I suspect that many called the best years ago. The state of influence on the business of analysts on the side of the sale is not a fact, and it applauds it to reach that level.
Many coordinated wheels are needed for an ETF vehicle to get hot, as it has been during its first four months. It is likely that a large liquidity bubble is seen as the warning signal that many lost. But not for now.
IVES, his firm (Wedbush) and the people who created the artificial intelligence index Solactive Wedbush around the analyst’s stock investigations, all played a role in getting this ETF to be marketed and in attracting attention.
This is something that not all investors realize. Now there are years of evidence that show that if an ETF has great performance, assets can find it. But if an ETF has a great recognition of the audience, they are much more likely to do so. If he is settling his head and thinking: “A lot of life works that way now,” I am with you.

But that does not make this ETF special. What would you do? If you did something that others do not, how to explore a true niche in the stock market. IVES is based on an index that was probably created in part to be able to bring an ETF to the market a year later, since the new ETFs can use that predecessor “history” for the first part of its existence, under a set of rules that includes the use of full calendar years and a substantially similar investment strategy.
“Differentiation” is what I suspect will separate the long -term winners from the rest. In a market where a public company can change its name or commercial approach to AI or cryptography mining and see its rocket of values ​​to the ad, can mount the skirts for a while. Until someone steps on their coat, and everything falls to the floor.
Taking advantage of a media personality is not a new idea. And my goal here is not to recommend for or against ETF IVES. However, it is to alert merchants and investors about what this new product is, and it is not. Here is a short list:
The ETF prospect establishes that it points to capitalize the rapid growth of artificial intelligence by investing in companies prepared to lead the transformation of AI. This fund offers investors exposed to a diversified portfolio of companies at the forefront of AI technology. It is not the only background that does this. It is the only specific Wedbush research engine.
I am not a big fan of the use of the relationship of expenses as a priority analytical tool with ETF, since many of them are a case of obtaining what you pay. But at 0.75%, or $ 75 in an initial investment of $ 10,000, I would expect to obtain a truly differentiated portfolio.
The new ETFs are not so easy to locate, so I went directly to Wedbushfunds.com, the IVES website. I see all the “usual suspects” here, and the only difference between the ETF IVES and several other ETF of technological weight index is a modest propagation in the percentage weights of the higher actions. But if an investor said: “I am buying this ETF so that you can get access to a basket of Ai Vanguardia shares,” I think it is getting the equivalent of going to a wild game restaurant, just to realize that it was given a chicken dish. The main properties include Tesla (TSLA), Taiwan Semi (TSM), Oracle (ORCL), Alphabet (Googl), Broadcom (AVGO), Apple (AAPL), NVIDIA (NVDA), Microsoft (MSFT), etc.
I saw this list and I thought, who better to ask about the new ETF of AI than ai? Specifically, I listed the 25 main holdings of Iives and asked the chatbot to provide an ETF list that had at least 20 of them. Responded with this (paraphrased):
“This list is a combination of great technological actions that are components of the main market rates such as S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100”.
Basically, he told me that if he wanted to have a basket of those actions, “the ETFs that track these broad indexes are their best option.”
Hey, my initial average is A, so that makes me Rai. But even when we remove that r, AI produces the same answer.
I am familiar with the AI ​​ETF space and I came up with a rapid 5 including IVES. I wanted to see if there was an “alpha”, even in the short period of time that coincides with the existence of Iives.

The answer is yes and no. As with any period of measurement of weeks, no years, an increase up or down or there in a couple of shares can skew the results in favor of some ETF over others. In the case of Iives, I was having Oracle, Alphabet and Tesla within its main properties that seem to have made the difference. That trio had unusually strong profits in recent months.
That is less about the selection of added value stocks, and it could have a bit to do with the aforementioned position size. But that assumes that the management of the portfolio is the driver here, instead of simply saying “hey, buy his actions here.” Again, nothing against ETF, and certainly not against Dan Iives. Correct place, adequate, impressive moment.
Only time will say it. And this is still a new ETF. But if this turns out to be more like having the same shares in a different ticket, IVES’s fate could depend much more on the general appetite of investors due to the actions of AI than this or any other ETF avant -garde investigation. In that sense, this is a new fund, but not a new situation in the increasingly commercialized world of ETF investment.
