It also traded more than 99.5% of all ETFs ([including] some big [ones] like DIA, ARKK, SLV). Det [definitely] defied our expectations.The analyst added:

If we dont exclude ETFs where their Day One volume was literally one pre-planned giant investor or BYOA (not natural), it still ranks #2 overall. Heres that list. The reason some of these shouldnt be included IMO is they dont really represent grassroots interest.

What does this mean for assets? My guess is about half of this volume will end up as flows next two days. [Probably] looking at $750 [million] by end of week, something like that. Tomorrows volume will be interesting and how much it comes down to Earth vs [staying] high.
