Tuttle Capital Short Innovation ETF
The Tuttle Capital Short Innovation ETF (SARK) is an American inverse exchange-traded fund (ETF) listed on the Nasdaq. The ETF launched in November 2021 and is designed to provide returns inverse, on a daily basis, of the ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK), an Active management, actively managed ETF by Cathie Wood's Ark Invest. It is the first ETF in the United States to provide inverse exposure to another ETF. It uses Swap (finance), swap contracts rather than short selling to achieve inverse exposure to ARKK. The Short Innovation ETF is unique in seeking inverse performance of ARKK, an actively managed portfolio of stocks, in contrast to other inverse ETFs which bet against a particular stock market index or industry classification. Ben Johnson, director of global ETF research for Morningstar, Inc., Morningstar, described such a product as "unprecedented." In January 2022, ''Mad Money'' host Jim Cramer highlighted the ETF as seeking to benefit from the weakness in growth-oriented stocks ...

Inverse Exchange-traded Fund
An inverse exchange-traded fund is an exchange-traded fund (ETF), traded on a public stock market, which is designed to perform as the ''inverse'' of whatever index or benchmark it is designed to track. These funds work by using short selling, trading derivatives such as futures contracts, and other leveraged investment techniques. By providing over short investing horizons and excluding the impact of fees and other costs, performance opposite to their benchmark, inverse ETFs give a result similar to short selling the stocks in the index. An inverse S&P 500 ETF, for example, seeks a daily percentage movement opposite that of the S&P. If the S&P 500 rises by 1%, the inverse ETF is designed to fall by 1%; and if the S&P falls by 1%, the inverse ETF should rise by 1%. Because their value rises in a declining market environment, they are popular investments in bear markets. Short sales have the potential to expose an investor to unlimited losses, whether or not the sale involves ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Short Squeeze
In the stock market, a short squeeze is a rapid increase in the price of a stock owing primarily to an excess of short selling of a stock rather than underlying fundamentals. A short squeeze occurs when there is a lack of supply and an excess of demand for the stock due to short sellers having to buy stocks to cover their short positions. Overview Short selling is a finance practice in which an investor, known as the short-seller, borrows shares and immediately sells them, hoping to buy them back later ("covering") at a lower price. As the shares were borrowed, the short-seller must eventually return them to the lender (plus interest and dividend, if any), and therefore makes a profit if they spend less buying back the shares than they earned when selling them. However, an unexpected piece of favorable news can cause a jump in the stock's share price, resulting in a loss rather than a profit. Short-sellers might then be triggered to buy the shares they had borrowed at a higher pric ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Industry Classification
Industry classification or industry taxonomy is a type of economic taxonomy that classifies companies, organizations and traders into industrial groupings based on similar production processes, similar products, or similar behavior in financial markets. National and international statistical agencies use various industry-classification schemes to summarize economic conditions. Securities analysts use such groupings to track common forces acting on groups of companies, to compare companies' performance to that of their peers, and to construct either specialized or diversified portfolios. Sectors and industries Economic activities can be classified in a variety of ways. At the top level, they are often classified according to the three-sector theory into sectors: primary (extraction and agriculture), secondary (manufacturing), and tertiary (services). Some authors add quaternary (knowledge) or even quinary (culture and research) sectors. Over time, the fraction of a society's ac ...

Stock Market Index
In finance, a stock index, or stock market index, is an index that measures a stock market, or a subset of the stock market, that helps investors compare current stock price levels with past prices to calculate market performance. Two of the primary criteria of an index are that it is ''investable'' and ''transparent'': The methods of its construction are specified. Investors can invest in a stock market index by buying an index fund, which are structured as either a mutual fund or an exchange-traded fund, and "track" an index. The difference between an index fund's performance and the index, if any, is called ''tracking error''. For a list of major stock market indices, see List of stock market indices. Types of indices by weighting method Stock market indices could be segmented by their index weight methodology, or the rules on how stocks are allocated in the index, independent of its stock coverage. For example, the S&P 500 and the S&P 500 Equal Weight both covers the sam ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
