Bloomberg's ETF analyst is putting a number on the cost of trading the doom headlines: 34% in 22 months for anyone who just held the S&P 500 index fund through AI bubble talk and Fed hikes.

COYOTE VS SPX: Wrote today about how this market is so akin to the Road Runner cartoon, as the S&P 500 cheerfully eludes each new alarmist narrative thrown at it by the Doomers w/ AI Fears and Fed Hikes being the latest attempts over the past 22mos which has seen $VOO gain 34%. https://t.co/lTfpbZwldr

Bitcoin's biggest ETF outranking gold's at 5th in all-ETF volume is the clearest sign yet that the debasement trade is rotating toward crypto, and Balchunas says the volume leaderboard now doubles as the year's theme list.

$IBIT having one those days.. 5th in overall ETF volume with its BFF (Best Frenemy Forever) $GLD in 9th spot (normally GLD has higher rank, prob btc price up more today). Btw the Top 10 is a perfect snapshot of this year: VOO & Chill + AI Mania + Debasement Trade https://t.co/gXW5A4rlsz
