 | FRI, OCT 08, 2021 | | | | | | YOUR WEEKLY UPDATE ON TOP ETF TRENDS | | | | Fixed income is on fire. Demand for fixed-income ETFs is surging as investors turn to the trade for inflation protection. Join me this Monday at 1pm ET – we'll talk to Van Eck Associates CEO Jan van Eck, whose firm runs over 20 fixed income ETFs, and Todd Rosenbluth, senior director of ETF and mutual fund research at CFRA, about what's driving the moves and what could lie ahead. Catch it all Monday at 1pm ET on etfedge.cnbc.com. You're gonna need a bigger moat. VanEck is also expanding its ESG offerings: This week, the firm announced the launch of the VanEck Morningstar ESG Moat ETF (MOTE), which invests in companies with longer-term advantages over their industry peers – or "moats" – while screening for ESG. It's heavily weighted towards tech and consumer discretionary stocks for now. We'll ask Jan all about the product and developments in ESG on Monday. On the cryptocurrency front, the SEC just approved the Volt Crypto Industry Revolution and Tech ETF (BTCR), which plans to invest in companies exposed to bitcoin and involved in its infrastructure. Could this pave the way for long-awaited bitcoin ETF approvals? Don't miss Monday's star-studded panel discussion on what's next for crypto.
