…. obviously waiting for SpaceX
BetaShares’ Space Industry ETF, which has attracted $8.4 million of inflows in its first 13 days of trading.
While the fund does not yet hold SpaceX, the stock will be added two trading days after it floats because the ETF follows an index with a fast-tracking mechanism that allows freshly listed mega-cap companies to bypass standard waiting periods.
