Institutional investors embrace next wave of ETFs

Tradeweb

Since their first introduction in the early 1990s, U.S. retail investors have embraced Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) as a way to diversify their investment portfolios, viewing ETFs as a pathway to better pricing, greater efficiency, better investor access and improved execution for a wide variety of assets and trading strategies. Now, as new ETF products have launched and investor demands have changed, institutional investors are playing a larger role in driving ETF adoption. Take the recent listing of spot Bitcoin ETFs, for example. Earlier this year, after receiving approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), eleven spot Bitcoin ETFs debuted in the U.S. market. Hailed as the most successful ETF launch in history, on its first day of trading, total spot Bitcoin ETF volumes reached over $4.6 billion. In the first four days of trading, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) ETF reached $1 billion in assets, the first among the group of eleven newly launched ETFs to reach this milestone. Now the world’s largest Bitcoin fund, the ETF has garnered nearly $20 billion in total assets. Although popular among retail investors, cryptocurrencies have received mixed reviews from institutional investors, with many rejecting the assets outright because of their potentially speculative and unregulated nature. However, in the months following the launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs, market makers and institutional investors lined up in force to price these ETFs and gain exposure to these assets – resulting in strong liquidity and high volumes on its first day of trading. This momentum continued to build, with roughly 500 institutional investors allocating funds into spot Bitcoin ETFs in the first quarter of 2024. On the Tradeweb platform, BlackRock’s IBIT ETF reached an average daily volume of $4.2 million in the first six months. Benefits of the ETF Wrapper While the strong volumes that played out across the market and on the Tradeweb platform over the past six months are a testament to the sophistication and preparedness of institutional firms themselves, they also underscore the attractiveness of ETFs more broadly. A variety of characteristics make the ETF structure appealing. The most basic is that an ETF looks, feels and settles like a stock, while simultaneously managing risk efficiently and providing exposure to a wide range of asset classes. Because of this, more types of investors are willing to use ETFs in various ways, such as for cash equitization, asset diversification and tax management purposes. They also serve as hedging tools for traders wishing to express short-term tactical views on the market. In the case of Bitcoin, though, institutional investors may be more focused on the SEC's approval than price transparency and liquidity. This important step could influence whether Bitcoin and other digital currencies become more mainstream, as many institutional investors and ETF providers – skeptical about buying and settling the asset – still reject crypto currencies in their portfolios. Now, the ETF wrapper has made these assets more appealing. Instead of avoiding Bitcoin, investors just might justify with their investment committees buying assets that are more like equity, trade on a national exchange, and have regulatory approval. While the SEC noted that approving these spot Bitcoin ETFs was not an endorsement or approval of Bitcoin itself, the SEC emphasized the protections that would be afforded to investors by SEC regulation of the spot Bitcoin ETFs, such as full and fair product disclosure. Democratizing Fixed Income This is somewhat of a deja vu moment, since we’ve seen ETFs broaden an asset’s investor base before, and indeed transform a market. In fixed income, ETFs have changed the buying and selling of bonds by creating these fungible, easily tradeable proxy shares for assets that had largely been the domain of institutions and high net-worth individual investors. Traditionally, investors were more commonly set up and familiar with trading equities rather than fixed income, making it harder to source, price, bundle and trade certain bonds. As a result, retail investors, in particular, had difficulties accessing the full breadth of the fixed income market. But in the form of ETFs, investors were able to tap into multiple areas of the bond market, bringing on a whole new level of liquidity and price transparency to the underlying assets. That’s opened fixed income to retail investing and spawned a fixed income ETF boom over the past decade. Today, fixed income ETFs make up a $2 trillion asset class and in the U.S. alone, over 700 fixed income ETFs are currently trading, all of which are available to trade on the Tradeweb platform under the request-for-quote (RFQ) protocol. Since launching our first RFQ cash equities platform in Europe in 2018, institutional market participants have increasingly turned toward the protocol because of its advantages, including seamless integration into trading workflows, more flexibility, better pricing and increased efficiency. Moreover, we continue to report strong volumes across the ETF platform, driven by the constant expansion of electronic trade types and the introduction of new trading efficiencies. Since the launch of our institutional European ETF platform in 2012[1] and our U.S. ETF platform in 2016, we’ve reported a rise of 51% and 59%, respectively, in total average annual notional volume growth[2]. Sure, generally, the assets underlying an ETF need to be liquid already for an ETF to be successful, but if our experience watching more retail investors leaping into fixed income ETFs is a guide, we’re likely to see new kinds of investors dabbling in digital assets and institutional investors continue to make a bigger splash in areas where they hadn’t in the past, such as cryptocurrencies. Ethereum Takes the Spotlight With the successful launch of Bitcoin behind us, spot Ethereum ETFs are the latest to get the greenlight after the SEC approved the listing of eight spot ether ETFs in May 2024. On the first day of trading, the eight new spot ether ETFs hit $1 billion in trading volume on their first day – a smaller number than the over $4.6 billion in total trading volume spot Bitcoin ETFs pulled in on the first day, but a significant milestone nonetheless. What the SEC has not signaled in these narrow approvals of crypto ETFs, though, is its willingness to approve listing standards for crypto asset securities in general, citing the speculative, volatile nature of the asset. ETFs based on baskets of different crypto assets have yet to emerge, and investors hoping to broadly diversify their crypto holdings through ETFs have had to settle for shares whose underlying assets are companies that own or deal in crypto currencies – rather than the currencies themselves. Even still, as we’ve seen in fixed income, the ETF wrapper can play a significant role in changing a market, leading the way to greater acceptance of the asset class and promoting broader interest and acceptance among investors by offering a more tax-efficient and transparent way to diversify holdings and gain exposure to a broader range of assets. These characteristics have made ETFs appealing to retail investors, who have historically pioneered ETF adoption, and institutions and high-net-worth investors, who have more recently been driving this trend. It’s a role we’ll continue to watch over time as innovation, new asset classes and technologies shape what’s next for ETFs.

Huntington Park Police Renews Knightscope Partnership for Sixth Year as Crime Rates Drop

MarketJar

Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP), a leading Silicon Valley-based AI and security tech innovator, has once again secured the trust of Huntington Park Police Department, renewing its contract for the sixth consecutive year. This extension ensures that the K5 Autonomous Security Robot (ASR) will continue its crucial role in safeguarding Salt Lake Park, a move that has already led to a significant reduction in crime and enhanced public safety. Knightscope, which is known for its cutting-edge autonomous security robots (ASRs) and blue light emergency communication systems, creates technology that deters, detects, and reports incidents in real time. These robots are more than just gadgets; they represent a new frontier in crime prevention, offering security professionals unparalleled situational awareness. With their cost-effective deployment, Knightscope ’s robots are protecting various environments across the country, from workplaces and schools to parks and public spaces. The company's overarching mission is to transform the United States into the safest country in the world. Huntington Park Police Chief Cosme Lozano expressed his enthusiasm about the continued collaboration, stating, “The integration of the K5 ASR into our city resources has been transformative. It has greatly improved our capacity to monitor public spaces, boost public safety, and enhance the overall perception of our community.” The impact of the K5 ASR has been nothing short of remarkable. Since its deployment, the robot has played a key role in reducing crime and nuisance activities at Salt Lake Park. According to the city manager, the presence of the K5 ASR led to a 10% reduction in service calls and a staggering 46% decrease in crime reports during its initial year of operation. These figures underscore the effectiveness of Knightscope ’s technology in fostering a safer environment for the community. Knightscope also upgraded the Huntington Park Police Department to the fifth-generation K5 Autonomous Security Robot (ASR) at no extra cost, further enhancing its capabilities in safeguarding Salt Lake Park and continuing its impressive track record of reducing crime and boosting public safety. 1 The upgraded fifth-generation K5 Autonomous Security Robot features a wider stance for better stability, a raised camera for near eye-level 4K video capture, improved battery architecture, enhanced audio, additional lighting for better nighttime visibility, and a design optimized for easier maintenance. These improvements enhance its effectiveness and operational reliability. 2 William Santana Li, Chairman and CEO of Knightscope, emphasized the importance of equipping law enforcement with advanced tools, stating, “Our law enforcement officers deserve the utmost respect for their dedication and the best tools available to support their mission. We are honored to continue our partnership for another year, helping to protect the places where people live, work, study, and visit.” The K5 ASR, a cornerstone of Knightscope ’s technology suite, is not just making waves in Huntington Park. It’s also gaining widespread recognition in the tech world. Recently, Citi featured the K5 robot in its influential report titled "The Rise of AI Robots," positioning it alongside Boston Dynamics' Spot robot and Tesla's Optimus. 3 This acknowledgment underscores the growing impact of Knightscope ’s innovations and highlights the K5’s role in advancing security technology. Knightscope Expands Contracts with Schools, Transit Agencies, and University of Texas The recent extension with the police department is just the tip of the iceberg. Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP) has achieved significant contract expansions with a diverse range of clients, including schools, transit agencies, multifamily communities, and universities, highlighting the growing confidence in its security technologies. Last month, the company renewed and expanded its contracts with several school districts and transit agencies. The enhanced agreements will see the deployment of Knightscope 's K5 Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs) to patrol and monitor public spaces, offering real-time incident detection and reporting to boost safety. The University of Texas has increased its use of Knightscope 's emergency communication systems, a move aimed at bolstering the university’s preparedness and response capabilities during emergencies. In California, a multifamily community has expanded its contract with Knightscope to include more K5 ASRs. This expansion will enhance security and improve safety for residents through continuous monitoring and prompt incident reporting. Additionally, two other universities have extended their contracts with Knightscope, incorporating more of its security solutions to further strengthen campus security and create a safer environment for students and staff. These expansions reflect Knightscope ’s growing impact and its commitment to improving safety and security across a variety of sectors and locations.

The Versatility Of Nickel Makes It An Essential Element In Batteries And Energy Storage

Benzinga

By Kyle Anthony, Benzinga Base metals, particularly nickel, are essential to our modern economy and are critical to supporting sustained economic growth. Nickel’s versatility is evident in numerous use cases. However, two key trends within our modern economy – energy storage and electrical vehicles – have driven increased nickel demand in recent years and are projected to continue doing so in the years to come. The Versatility Of Nickel Nickel plays an important role in our modern economy due to its distinctive attributes of high resistance to heat and corrosion and its ability to be easily cleaned. Approximately two-thirds of nickel’s usage is in stainless steel items, which range from pots and pans to large-scale industrial manufacturing items, such as jet engines. Due to nickel’s high resistance to corrosion and heat, it is a versatile metal that can be used across differing manufacturing use cases. As the world moves to meet growing global requirements for electricity, the importance of nickel in batteries and energy storage is increasing further. For example, lithium-ion batteries increasingly use more nickel to increase the drivable range. Adding nickel increases the energy density of these batteries, leading to a longer drivable range. So, for geographic areas such as North America, which are very car-dependent, nickel will likely become an increasingly important part of the transition from gas-powered cars to electric vehicles in the coming decades. Nickel Supply Amid Growing Demand As reported in the 2024 International Energy Agency (IEA) Global EV Outlook, the shift to a clean energy system is set to drive a huge increase in metal requirements, leading the energy sector to become a significant stakeholder in their procurement. In a scenario that meets the Paris Agreement goals, the IEA forecasts that the demand for metals will rise significantly over the next two decades, with total demand increasing by 60-70% for nickel. Given the anticipated demand for nickel, understanding where it can be sourced is important. Presently, Indonesia is the primary region where nickel is mined, accounting for approximately 50% of global production. Some other countries – namely, the Philippines, Russia, New Caledonia and Australia – are also nickel providers; however, the scale of Indonesia’s mineral reserves warrants its market share. From a geopolitical perspective, China has been getting close to Indonesia for the last two decades as it tries to corner various aspects of the critical minerals market. In turn, to spur investment in Indonesia’s nickel industry, stakeholders interested in accessing their nickel reserves to help build up their supply chain could be important. Future Use Cases For Nickel As mentioned earlier, the growth of the EV sector is expected to be a strong driver for nickel demand. However, the development of data centers and AI is proving to be another catalyst for demand. AI requires vast data centers that contain sophisticated servers, which use large amounts of energy for ongoing computational power. One of the things that data centers need during periods when they might not have excess energy, such as if they're using solar or if there are other infrastructure problems, is battery backups. Innovation within battery design is demonstrating that nickel-zinc battery chemistry has a high energy efficacy rating, resulting in a much denser battery, which means it takes up less space - which is at a premium inside AI data centers and also allows these batteries to operate at a much higher temperature. Investing In Nickel With Sprott As the world moves to meet rising requirements for electricity, growing numbers of electric vehicles and a greater need for energy storage, a myriad of technological innovations will undoubtedly be brought to market, but they all will require the necessary battery metals for them to be viable. The Sprott Nickel Miners ETF Fund (NASDAQ: NIKL) aims to capitalize on the growing demand for nickel. The potential value of the Sprott Nickel Miners ETF Fund is three-fold. Firstly, as commodity exposure – commodity indexes tend to be underweight nickel or exclude it altogether. Investors could consider this ETF to add to their commodity portfolio, or to allocate more to nickel than the benchmark they are tracking may be providing. Secondly, as a thematic or growth bucket. Thematic and growth often tend to go hand in hand. Since nickel is an area of the commodity sector expected to grow in the coming decades, future-focused investors may want to look into this ETF for exposure. Finally, as a global equity energy allocation – given that non-U.S. countries hold the largest nickel reserves, investors looking to diversify their energy exposure could consider this fund in light of the importance of nickel in EV batteries and energy storage. Sprott’s recent special report, The Case for Investing in Nickel Miners, argues that as electric vehicles and energy storage technologies become mainstays in our global economy, the companies that reflect the value of battery materials will represent real economic value and be a source of wealth-building for investors.
