ETF Securities Commodity ETP Weekly Geopolitical Risks in Focus

Dovish outlook causes gold bears to trim exposure.

Profit taking prompts ETFS Physical Silver (PHAG) outflows after 7.9% weekly rally.

Long WTI ETPs witness first weekly outflows in six months.

ETFSWeekly

Conflict in Yemen, Iranian nuclear talks and Greek debt negotiations will mean geopolitical risks are likely to dominate headlines and keep investor risk appetite subdued. As a result, asset price volatility will remain elevated, as illustrated last week by the impact of Saudi Arabia’s military actions, which sent the price of crude soaring. Towards the end of the week, investor attention will turn to US payroll data due, hoping to gain a better indication of the pace of interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve.

Dovish outlook causes gold bears to trim exposure. Fed chair Yellen’s speech last week highlighted the gradual nature of the tightening cycle when it begins later in 2015. This has kept the US Dollar relatively subdued and precious metals prices supported as rate hike expectations continued to be pushed back – a process that began after the latest FOMC meeting. The gold price ended the week up 3.2% at US$1,199/oz, just below the important US$1,200/oz psychological level. The rally prompted US$109mn to exit ETFS Daily Short Gold (SBUL) as positive sentiment caused investors to reduce short gold exposure. Gold is likely to be supported by rising volatility in coming months, as investors dissect economic indicators to discern the start of the tightening cycle – currently expected at the September FOMC meeting.

Profit taking prompts ETFS Physical Silver (PHAG) outflows after 7.9% weekly rally. Silver followed gold higher last week as geopolitical concerns coupled with a relatively dovish tone from the US Federal Reserve about the pace and timing of rate hikes, boosted the demand for precious metals. Precious metals typically become an attractive alternative during periods of low interest rates and any perceived delays to rate normalisation in the US will act as a bullish factor for the complex. PHAG saw a net weekly redemption of US$7mn following the price rally, as investors locked in profits. This year silver has performed well rising 7.3% and has attracted of inflows US$70.7mn into ETPs providing long exposure.

Long WTI ETPs witness first weekly outflows in six months. US crude rallied 17% last week encouraging profit taking by investors with long exposure. The rally, initially instigated by Dollar depreciation. was assisted by Saudi led airstrikes launched in Yemen against the Houthi rebels, after the internationally recognised Yemeni president made pleas for assistance. Although Yemen produces relatively little oil, the bombings raised fears that the conflict would escalate between oil rich Saudi Arabia and Iran, which is believed to have provided arms, training and financial support to rebel forces. Long WTI ETPs, until now, had experienced the longest streak of net weekly inflows (25) since inception as investors positioned themselves for a recovery in oil prices. Last week, a total of US$50.1mn exited long oil ETPs, including US$26mn from ETFS Daily Leveraged WTI Crude Oil (LOIL), the largest net weekly outflow since 2011.

Key events to watch this week. 
Market focus will be on US payroll data due on Friday, as investors continue to try and preempt the pace of rate hikes in the US. Geopolitical risks will continue to remain in the fore as the deadline for an Iranian nuclear deal approaches and the impasse over a Greek debt deal lingers. Precious metals investors will be monitoring Eurozone CPI, which will likely reveal the ECB still has much to do to help boost inflationary pressures via strengthening demand.

Michael Saylor’s bold Bitcoin bet and Strategy’s risk analysis

Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) has amassed a staggering $43 billion in Bitcoin, positioning itself at the forefront of the corporate “reserve race.” Under the leadership of Bitcoin maximalist Michael Saylor, the company now boasts an $84 billion market cap. But with such an aggressive strategy, how sustainable is its approach—and what risks lie ahead? We break it down in today’s analysis.

Bitcoin price technical analysis: Where are the liquidation levels?

A drop below $72,000 could flush longs, while a breakout above $90,000 may squeeze shorts. One key positive indicator is that Bitcoin continues to print higher lows since March 10, which preserves a bullish market structure in our view. Dive into our technical analysis.

What are real-world assets and why do we need tokenization?

Imagine owning a slice of a skyscraper or a piece of fine art with just a few clicks. Tokenization, the act of converting ownership rights to real-world assets (RWAs) into tradable tokens, has surpassed $10 billion in on-chain value, unlocking global 24/7 access to once-exclusive markets with liquidity, efficiency, and yield. Find out how it works.

Indexet består av ESG (environmental, social and governance) screenade företagsobligationer. Betyg: Investment Grade. Löptid: december 2030 (Denna ETF kommer att stängas efteråt).

Den börshandlade fondens TER (total cost ratio) uppgår till 0,10 % p.a. Invesco BulletShares 2030 EUR Corporate Bond UCITS ETF EUR Acc är den billigaste och största ETF som följer Bloomberg 2030 Maturity EUR Corporate Bond Screened index. ETFen replikerar det underliggande indexets prestanda genom samplingsteknik (köper ett urval av de mest relevanta indexbeståndsdelarna). Ränteintäkterna (kupongerna) ackumuleras och återinvesteras.

Invesco BulletShares 2030 EUR Corporate Bond UCITS ETF EUR Acc är en mycket liten ETF med tillgångar på 6 miljoner euro under förvaltning. Denna ETF lanserades den 18 juni 2024 och har sin hemvist i Irland.

Produktbeskrivning

Invesco BulletShares 2030 EUR Corporate Bond UCITS ETF Acc syftar till att ge den totala avkastningen för Bloomberg 2030 Maturity EUR Corporate Bond Screened Index (”Referensindexet”), minus avgifternas inverkan. Fonden har en fast löptid och kommer att upphöra på Förfallodagen.

Referensindexet är utformat för att återspegla resultatet för EUR-denominerade, investeringsklassade, fast ränta, skattepliktiga skuldebrev emitterade av företagsemittenter. För att vara berättigade till inkludering måste företagsvärdepapper ha minst 300 miljoner euro i nominellt utestående belopp och en effektiv löptid på eller mellan 1 januari 2030 och 31 december 2030.

Värdepapper är uteslutna om emittenter: 1) är inblandade i kontroversiella vapen, handeldvapen, militära kontrakt, oljesand, termiskt kol eller tobak; 2) inte har en kontroversnivå enligt definitionen av Sustainalytics eller har en Sustainalytics-kontroversnivå högre än 4; 3) anses inte följa principerna i FN:s Global Compact; eller 4) kommer från tillväxtmarknader.

Portföljförvaltarna strävar efter att uppnå fondens mål genom att tillämpa en urvalsstrategi, som inkluderar användning av kvantitativ analys, för att välja en andel av värdepapperen från referensindexet som representerar hela indexets egenskaper, med hjälp av faktorer som index- vägd genomsnittlig varaktighet, industrisektorer, landvikter och kreditkvalitet. När en företagsobligation som innehas av fonden når förfallodag kommer kontanterna som fonden tar emot att användas för att investera i kortfristiga EUR-denominerade skulder.

ETFen förvaltas passivt.

En investering i denna fond är ett förvärv av andelar i en passivt förvaltad indexföljande fond snarare än i de underliggande tillgångarna som ägs av fonden.

Förfallodag: andra onsdagen i december 2026 eller sådant annat datum som bestäms av styrelseledamöterna och meddelas aktieägaren

US regulatory shift provides a beacon for optimism

Publicerad

den

Since President Trump appointed Mark Uyeda as acting SEC chair two months ago, many investigations into crypto businesses have been dropped, as the SEC moves away from regulation by enforcement and works to create a framework for digital assets. As regulations become clearer and news flow turns more positive, crypto prices—which dropped sharply this week—should begin to better reflect the new regulatory landscape in the US.

Since President Trump appointed Mark Uyeda as acting SEC chair two months ago, many investigations into crypto businesses have been dropped, as the SEC moves away from regulation by enforcement and works to create a framework for digital assets. As regulations become clearer and news flow turns more positive, crypto prices—which dropped sharply this week—should begin to better reflect the new regulatory landscape in the US.

We believe this regulatory shift could ultimately help trigger the next leg of the current bull run, as investors better understand the significance of regulatory clarity and seek to acquire bitcoin and altcoins at what we believe are currently very favorable levels.

Market Highlights

SEC Dismisses Crypto Enforcement Actions

The SEC dropped its enforcement actions against crypto-related companies Kraken, Consensys, and Cumberland DRW.

This indicates a shift in SEC’s regulatory approach, favoring clearer guidelines over enforcement actions. Such a pivot could foster a more predictable environment, encouraging innovation within the sector.

Banks to Engage in Crypto Activities

The FDIC has rescinded previous guidelines which prevented financial institutions from engaging with crypto activities without prior sign-off.

By removing bureaucratic hurdles, banks may more readily offer crypto-related services, potentially leading to broader adoption and integration of digital assets.

Bitcoin ETFs Inflow Streak Surpassed $1 Billion

US spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded a 10-day inflow streak exceeding $1 billion marking the longest such streak in 2025.

This underscores growing institutional and retail investor confidence in Bitcoin as an asset class that helps increase market stability and possibly paving the way for the approval of other crypto-based financial products.

Market Metrics

All NCITM constituents had negative performance last week, with XRP (-10.8%) and UNI (-10.7%) seeing the steepest declines. ETH also experienced a sharp drop (-9.1%), contributing to NCITM’s underperformance relative to BTC (-2.9%). The NCITM -4.2% decline reflects a broader risk-off sentiment in the crypto market, as investors reassess their positions amid ongoing macroeconomic uncertainties.

NCITM (-4.2%) extended its underperformance last week, deepening year-to-date losses. Traditional indices like the S&P 500 (-1.5%) and Nasdaq 100 (-2.4%) saw smaller declines. The gap between crypto and other risk assets continues to widen, while gold has emerged as the top performer in 2025, gaining nearly 20% amid ongoing macroeconomic uncertainties. This trend highlights a growing risk-off sentiment, with investors shifting toward defensive assets and away from high-volatility investments.
