In the last trading session, Wall Street was downbeat. Among the top ETFs, SPY added 0.77%, DIA gained about 0.4% and QQQ moved 0.5% higher on the day.
Two more specialized ETFs are worth noting as both saw trading volume that was far outside of normal. In fact, both these funds experienced volume levels that were more than double their average for the most-recent trading session. This could make these ETFs the ones to watch out for in the days ahead to see if this trend of extra-interest continues.
VYM: Volume 3.61 Times Average
This high dividend ETF was under the microscope as about 7.43 million shares moved hands. This compares with an average trading volume of roughly 2.06 million shares and came as VYM gained 0.9% in the last trading session. VYM is down 3.6% in a month’s time.
DBE: Volume 4.06 Times Average
This energy ETF was in the spotlight as around 598,000 shares moved hands compared with an average of 147,500 shares a day. We also saw some price movement as DBE lost 2.9% in the last session. DBE has lost 10% over the past month.
