Ryan Fitzgerald

  • This week, the industry experienced 19 ETF launches and 6 closures, shifting the 1-year Open-to-Close ratio to 2.81 and total US ETFs to 3,117.

    • Total assets increased 7.77%, there was an increase of 23 ETFs to total US ETF count (3,033), and 0 additional issuers by brand.
      • This is massively different from January 2022 which featured -5.7% decline in assets, +32 ETFs, and +6 issuers.
      • Additionally, this would have been the best performing month in assets in all of 2022. October 2022 was up 6.99%.

  • January had incredible asset performance, bringing total assets back above $7 Trillion for the first time since early April 2022. Slight slowdown on issuers and ETFs, but not too outside of the mean.
