The financial market is witnessing a historic shift, with the widest gap in history between the number of publicly traded ETFs and the number of publicly traded stocks.
Number of ETFs Exceeds That of Stocks
Something went wrong.
In a Wednesday post on X, The Kobeissi Letter said that there are 1,000 more ETFs than stocks to trade in the U.S. market, indicating "The structure of the market is experiencing a historic shift."
The number of U.S.-listed ETFs has risen to an all-time high of 4,900, up 95% since 2000, while the number of U.S. publicly listed companies has declined 20% to 3,900, the lowest this century.
