Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
Per its SEC registration, the Tuttle Capital UFO Disclosure AI Powered ETF (UFOD) will purportedly invest over 80% of the fund’s assets in companies that they believe “have potential exposure to advanced or ‘reverse-engineered’ alien technology, spurred by disclosures about UFOs and alleged advanced technologies.”
Oh goody, was wondering where I would put those spare Uranueos I forgot to exchange and this is perfect. Next time I take an off-world trip, I won't need to remember to exchange the currency before I rocket back.
Last semester I audited a course in political environmental theory. The professor directed students to a site that simulated different approaches to global warming that came with costs and benefits. The idea was to find a combination of solutions that could be executed soon enough, with enough political support, and would be strong enough to address the problem. (Similar exercise to addressing social security shortfall.)
One of the options in this simulation was to seek out alien life to get help from other planets. I couldn't stop laughing in class when that one was mentioned.
All true. This rollout might say something about the appetite for risk taking by the public today. Another thought is - maybe they'll load up on SpaceX when it does an IPO later this year.
I get bad vibes about Tuttle. Don't know why. M* is pretty nuanced. Credits the firm with investing alongside shareholders and having stability in the management ranks, but only awards a neutral stewardship ("People Pillar") grade.
I think we should go all in. It seems to just be an AI "infrastructure" fund making decisions with an AI algorithm. Might be just the ticket (until that UFO lands and takes a swipe). Bolding mine because my first thought was, as in the future capture of Greenland, Canada, Mexico and Cuba, it might underwrite sensors useful to the New Project for the New American Century (DT-PNAC) hemispheric take over.
Principal Investment Strategies The Fund seeks to meet its objective by actively managing and investing at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in a in a basket of companies that the Adviser believes have potential exposure to advanced or “reverse-engineered” alien technology, spurred by government disclosures about UFOs (unidentified flying objects) and alleged advanced technologies. These companies include aerospace & defense contractors that might have R&D programs rumored to work with classified technology, potentially leading to groundbreaking advancements. Additionally, the Fund targets materials and energy firms that could benefit from new energy sources or metamaterials inspired by alien technology. The Fund’s investments are also made in semiconductor/electronics companies that might incorporate or license advanced alien-inspired components, driving innovation in the tech industry. Furthermore, the Fund includes companies specializing in detection/counter-UAP (unidentified anomalous phenomena) solutions, which are relevant to advanced sensor technology, ensuring comprehensive exposure to this speculative yet intriguing sector. ... The Fund employs an AI algorithm (the “Model") to assign each candidate stock a rating from 1 to 10....
Buy Matt Tuttle. https://www.tuttlecap.com/ Buy the flash. Buy the words. Buy the memes. He knows the secrets Wall Street won't share. According to M* his etf's have generated 1.5 billion in inflows in what looks like no time at all. Looking at the rest of the lineup aliens seem right up his alley.
I still see people talking about what Cathy Woods bought or sold, so this guy might be around for a while.

An ETF for the galactically stoopid. Oy.

I predict this thing will be on the ash-heap of thematic ETFs within 18 months.
Yep—this thematic ETf will bite the dust before long.

(That "Top Gun" one sounds intriguing.)
