The Federal Reserve is widely anticipated to cut interest rates at its upcoming Federal Open Market Committee meeting, with the decision set for release on Wednesday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40878710/investors-bet-on-50-basis-point-rate-cut-wall-street-analysts-urge-caution-this-is-">at 2 p.m. ET.</a>
The central bank has maintained the federal funds rate at 5.25%-5.5% since September 2023 and this week&#8217;s rate reduction would be the first since March 2020, signaling a marked shift from the restrictive monetary policy stance implemented to combat soaring inflation.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Rate Cut Expectations: Will The Fed Opt For 25 Or 50 Basis Points?</h3>
The key question on everyone&#8217;s mind is the magnitude of the rate cut. Will the Fed opt for a cautious 25-basis-point reduction, or will it make a bolder move with a 50-basis-point cut, as seen at the start of previous rate-cutting cycles?
Market sentiment currently differs from Wall Street economist consensus. Traders are pricing in a 63% probability of a 50-basis-point cut, as per the CME FedWatch tool.
Among Wall Street analysts, instead, there is an overwhelming consensus on a more conservative 25-basis-point reduction, but JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. stands out as the notable exception, forecasting a 50-basis-point cut.
According to the biggest U.S. bank, interest rates are about 150 basis points above neutral levels. Therefore, a 25-basis-point cut per meeting would take almost a year to align the policy back to a neutral stance. 
This strengthens the case for frontloading rate cuts at the start of the cycle, particularly given that, in hindsight, a July commencement might have been more appropriate.
Regardless of whether the Fed chooses a 25 or 50-basis-point reduction, analysts expect a series of cuts to continue through 2024 and 2025.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Investor Moves Ahead of the Rate Cut: Top 10 ETFs Investors Bought Last Week</h3>
In the week leading up to this highly anticipated rate cut, investors reshuffled their portfolios, resulting in significant inflows into various exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that may indicate a strategic tilt toward assets poised to benefit from a lower interest rate environment.
To identify these trends, Benzinga analyzed data from VettaFi&#8217;s etfdb.com, and found that investors displayed a strong preference for value-oriented ETFs. 
Notable among these were the iShares MSCI EAFE Value ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EFV#NYSE">EFV</a>) and SPDR Portfolio S&amp;P 500 Value ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPYV#NYSE">SPYV</a>), signaling a tilt towards assets that may offer stability and a defensive hedge as the macro regime shifts.
As a traditional beneficiary of lower interest rates, gold has also been on investors&#8217; radar, with prices repeatedly hitting record highs over the last week, supported by strong inflows into the SPDR Gold Shares (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>). 
Also worth noting is the interest in the tech sector, particularly semiconductors, with the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NYSE">SMH</a>) seeing substantial inflows.
Additionally, investors pursued speculative and leveraged strategies on the Nasdaq 100, likely interpreted as a bet to the rising chance of a larger 50-basis-point cut. 
Investors bought into both ProShares Ultra QQQ (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QLD#NYSE">QLD</a>), which aims to deliver twice the daily performance of the Nasdaq 100, and the ProShares UltraPro QQQ (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TQQQ#NYSE">TQQQ</a>), which targets three times the daily performance of the index.
Rounding out the list, the popular small-cap fund iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>) attracted over half a billion dollars in inflows last week, signaling investors&#8217; growing interest in smaller, domestically-focused companies as they are poised to benefit from declining borrowing costs.

10 ETFs Investors Secretly Bought Before The Fed's Make-Or-Break Interest Rate Call

The S&amp;P 500 is up 10 percent this year and with the benefit of 1.4 percent gain over the past week, the benchmark U.S. equity index continues pushing to record highs.
Sounds like a recipe for trouble for traders that have been long inverse or, worse yet, inverse leveraged exchange traded funds that profit from declines in U.S. stocks.
Rising U.S. stocks are chasing traders from bearish products such as the ProShares UltraShort S&amp;P500 (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/sds#NYSE">SDS</a>). SDS, one of the largest inverse ETFs trading in the U.S., attempts to deliver double the daily inverse performance of the S&amp;P 500. So if the S&amp;P 500 falls by 1 percent on a given day, SDS should rise by 2 percent.
&ldquo;We have seen some substantial redemption flows lately in a levered Bear fund that we have profiled here from time to time known as SDDs, where over $1 billion has left the fund,&rdquo; said <a href="http://streetonefinancial.com/">Street One Financial</a> Vice President Paul Weisbruch in a note out Tuesday. &ldquo;This move comes as the SPX itself has been trading if not threatening new all-time highs lately. &ldquo;SPX reached 2463.54 reached on an intraday basis last Friday before some regression back to present levels in stocks. This could be profit-taking in the fund, and someone expressing a view that perhaps being short here has little upside going into core earnings season.&rdquo;
<h3>
	Where Money Is Flowing</h3>
With the Nasdaq Composite continue to ascend to record highs, it stands to reason that investors would be attracted to the related ETFs. As Weisbruch points out, the PowerShares QQQ Trust, Series 1 (ETF) (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) has recently been hauling in new money in a big way.
To be precise, QQQ, which tracks the Nasdaq-100 Index, has added more than $3.3 billion in new assets over just the past week, <a href="https://www.invesco.com/portal/site/us/financial-professional/etfs/tools/flow-trend-tracker">according to issuer data</a>.
With QQQ ringing up new highs, active traders have been putting new money to work with the ProShares Ultra QQQ (ETF) (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/qld#NYSE">QLD</a>). QLD is designed to deliver double the daily returns of the Nasdaq-100 Index.
<h3>
	Earnings Impact</h3>
QQQ has been boosted by big-name earnings reports, such as Monday&#39;s report from Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/nflx#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>), but the ETF allocates about 80 percent of its combined weight to the technology and consumer discretionary stocks, so as more marquee names from those sectors step into the earnings confessional, QQQ could rise some more.

The splits will not change the total value of a shareholder&#39;s investment.

The funds will trade at their post-split prices on July 17, 2017. The ticker symbols and CUSIP numbers for the funds will not change. The forward splits will decrease the price per share of each fund with a proportionate increase in the number of shares outstanding. For example, for the 2-for-1 splits, every pre-split share will result in the receipt of two post-split shares, which will be priced at one-half the net asset value (&ldquo;NAV&rdquo;) of a pre-split share.

The ticker symbol for the funds will not change. All funds undergoing a reverse split will be issued a new CUSIP number, listed above. The reverse splits will increase the price per share of each fund with a proportionate decrease in the number of shares outstanding. For example, for a 1-for-4 reverse split, every four pre-split shares will result in the receipt of one post-split share, which will be priced four times higher than the NAV of a pre-split share. Illustration of a Reverse Split The following table shows the effect of a hypothetical 1-for-4 reverse split: &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Period&nbsp;# of Shares Owned&nbsp;Hypothetical NAV&nbsp;Value of Shares Pre-Split&nbsp;1,000&nbsp;$10.00&nbsp;$10,000.00 Post-Split&nbsp;250&nbsp;$40.00&nbsp;$10,000.00 &nbsp; Fractional Shares from Reverse Splits For shareholders who hold quantities of shares that are not an exact multiple of the reverse split ratio (for example, not a multiple of 4 for a 1-to-4 reverse split), the reverse split will result in the creation of a fractional share. Post-reverse split fractional shares will be redeemed for cash and sent to your broker of record. This redemption may cause some shareholders to realize gains or losses, which could be a taxable event for those shareholders.

ProShares Announces Several ETF Share Splits

Last week was very busy and this week the stock market has started off with a degree of concern.

	However, the selling pressure that we saw on Monday was much different than the selling pressure that we saw last week, so let&#39;s talk about why.

	I have been very vocal about my belief that the probability of a market crash in 2016 is high.&nbsp; My focus is on liquidity using simple supply and demand models as that relates to societal norms and lifetime investment patterns as those are defined by my macroeconomic work, <a href="https://members.stocktradersdaily.com/public.php/freetrial/10day/code/benz">The Investment Rate</a>, but I also have taken that further by integrating immediate liquidity concerns as those relate directly to margin debt.

	Although we can never be sure until months later, because the data is usually significantly delayed, something appeared quite obvious during last week&#39;s decline.&nbsp; In the middle of last week it seemed as if investors were selling first and thinking later, and the selling was broad based.

	My interpretation of that selling pressure is that it could be simply due to institutional investors reducing their exposure by lowering their margin debt.&nbsp; Late last year the net cash to margin debt ratio on the New York Stock Exchange reached an all time low, which means that institutional investors had less cash available as a percentage of margin debt and therefore less of an ability to assume additional debt to buy equities on a percentage basis than they have ever had before.

	Another way of looking at that is that they were essentially all in.

	<img alt="" src="/files/u97165/cash_-_margin_debt.png" style="width: 620px; height: 335px;" />

	One could argue that they were paying close attention to the &#39;market&#39;s almanac last year,&#39; because the &#39;almanac&#39; would support the historical fact that the market had never been down during the third year of a second presidential term and it was mostly strong during the third year of a first cycle presidential term as well, so using history as a tell, it may have helped investors rationalize going all in during last year&#39;s periodic declines.

	However, the weakness at the end of the year put all that into question, and arguably the selling pressure that started at the beginning of the year had plenty to do with an unwinding of margin debt, at least to a certain extent most likely, but that may have come to a head last week.

	In my point of view the unabated selling pressure that happened last week was a sign that institutional investors just decided to get out and reduce that margin debt exposure.&nbsp; They did it in a broad based manner, from what I observed, but we cannot be sure about the changes in net margin debt exposure on the New York Stock Exchange until the data is officially updated, and it won&#39;t be official for a while.

	This is where the comparison between what happened last week and the selling pressure that I am seeing on Monday comes into play.&nbsp; The selling pressure that is happening on Monday is much different than what we saw last week.&nbsp; Instead of being an unabated desire to sell to generate liquidity and reduce margin debt, the selling pressure today is much more controlled and normal given the sharp spike that happened from the oversold condition that existed in the middle of last week. &nbsp;

	The market surged from the middle of last week until the end of the week if you include its intraday lows especially, so a modest pullback like what we were seeing on Monday is not abnormal.

	My opinions last week also suggested that a series of backing and filling would be extremely healthy for this market on a near term basis, and that is exactly what may be happening at this time.&nbsp; The pullback on Monday may absolutely be part of the backing and filling process.

	Certainly, when our eyeballs reach beyond the past few days and extend to the beginning of the year again we can see that the market is still much lower than it was and therefore many investors can rationalize that the market also has some additional upside.

	Our Sentiment Table Strategy would suggest exactly that, and so would our Swing Trading Strategy.&nbsp; Both of these were double long the NASDAQ using ProShares Ultra QQQ (ETF) (NYSEARCA:QLD) when I wrote this based on the oversold conditions that triggered last week.

ProShares, the largest issuers of inverse and leveraged ETFs, will list its newest ETF, the ProShares Merger ETF, on the BATS exchange when the ETF debuts on Thursday, December 13. The ProShares Merger ETF will trade on BATS under the ticker "MRGR."

MRGR, which appears to be a competitor to the IndexIQ Merger Arbitrage ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/mna#NYSE">MNA</a>), will be part of the BATS competitive liquidity program, <a href="http://www.tradersmagazine.com/news/bats-lists-proshares-etfs-110615-1.html">according to Traders Magazine</a>.

In November 2011, BATS sought comments from the Securities and Exchange Commission on the possibility of listing three managed futures ETFs sponsored by ProShares, <a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/ariweinberg/2012/11/26/proshares-considers-listing-products-with-bats/">Forbes reported</a>. ProShares is known primarily for its so-called "geared" ETFs such as the ProShares UltraShort FTSE China 25 (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/fxp#NYSE">FXP</a>) and the ProShares Ultra QQQ (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/qld#NYSE">QLD</a>). To this point, the firm's success with traditional ETFs has been limited.

Still, the listing of a the new ProShares fund on its exchange could be seen as a coup for BATS <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/12/03/2445345/bats-rough-start-not-effecting-its-etfs-bats-enor-eden">following its bungled IPO attempt earlier this year</a>. The exchange told Traders Magazine is eying additional listings of ProShares ETFs in 2013.

BATS Exchange is already home to 16 iShares ETFs. The world's largest ETF sponsor was the first to list funds on BATS with the iShares MSCI Norway Capped Investable Market Index Fund (BATS: ENOR) being the first. 

Other iShares offering listed on BATS include the iShares MSCI Denmark Capped Investable Market Index Fund (BATS: EDEN), the Shares MSCI Canada Small Cap Index Fund (BATS: EWCS) and the iShares MSCI India Small Cap Index Fund (BATS: SMIN)

ETFs to Watch for November 19, 2012 

Apple (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is widely expected to unveil its new iPhone 5 Wednesday in San Francisco. Rumored features include a thinner body, longer touch screen, better resolution, better camera, faster processor, longer battery life, 4G LTE support and a mobile payment component. Sales of the next-generation smartphone are expected to break records, with some wild estimates as high as 10 million units snapped up in the first few weeks. Some claims even have iPhone sales single-handedly propping up the slumping U.S. gross domestic product. 

For the small investor or the bargain hunter, Apple's $660-plus per share stock price probably means getting in on the hype is out of the question. A quick look for alternatives with price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios, return on equity, earnings per share (EPS) growth forecasts and recent performance similar to or better than Apple reveals Cooper Tire &amp; Rubber (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/ctb#NYSE">CTB</a>), HollyFrontier (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/hfc#NYSE">HFC</a>) and Seagate Technology (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/stx#NASDAQ">STX</a>). But unlike Apple, these three stocks also come with a dividend.

Cooper Tire &amp; Rubber

The share price of this maker of replacement tires for domestic and international markets is about 36 percent higher than six months ago, and shares are trading near the 52-week high. This Findlay, Ohio-based manufacturer, which launched a mobile-optimized version of its website last month, has a market cap of about $1.4 billion. The P/E ratio is lower than the industry average, and the dividend yield is nearly two percent. The return on equity is a healthy 52.1 percent, and short interest is more than six percent of the float. Four of six analysts who follow the stock surveyed by Thomson Reuters recommend buying shares; none recommend selling. They seem to think the stock has some room to run, as their consensus price target is more than 15 percent higher than the current share price. But over the past six months, the stock has outperformed Apple and the broader markets.

HollyFrontier

This independent petroleum refiner is trading near a multiyear high, after the share price climbed about 28 percent in the past 90 days. The Dallas-based company has a market cap of more than $8 billion. Though its dividend seems small at 1.5%, the company also issues special dividends, including three so far this year. Its P/E ratio is less than the industry average and the operating margin is greater than the industry average. The return on equity is more than 47 percent, which is better than peers such as Valero Energy (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/vlo#NYSE">VLO</a>) and Western Refining (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/wnc#NYSE">WNC</a>). Short interest is less than three percent of the float. Eleven out of 19 analysts polled rate the stock a Buy or Strong Buy; none recommend selling shares. The consensus price target is about nine percent higher than the current share price. The stock has outperformed Valero and Apple over the past six months.

Seagate Technology

The share price has pulled back about 15 percent from a recent multiyear high, around the time this Irish data storage maker announced that it would buy the former Solyndra headquarters. But the stock is still up more than 84 percent year to date. Seagate sports a market cap near $12 billion, and it is headquartered in Dublin. Its dividend yield is more than four percent and the long-term EPS growth forecast is more than 25 percent. The operating margin is greater than the industry average. Short interest is less than seven percent of the float. However, the consensus price target is hardly any higher than the current share price, and only nine out of 34 analysts recommend buying shares. Because of the recent pullback, Seagate has underperformed Apple over the past six months, though it has outperformed competitors NetApp (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/ntap#NASDAQ">NTAP</a>) and Western Digital (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/wdc#NASDAQ">WDC</a>).

Of course, another way to the play the Apple hype without buying Apple shares is with exchange traded funds that have Apple as a prominent holding. Here are a few examples:

<ul><li>ProShares Ultra QQQ (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/qld#NYSE">QLD</a>) is up more than 48 percent year to date.</li>
<li>ProShares Ultra Technology (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/rom#NYSE">ROM</a>) is up almost 39 percent year to date.</li>
<li>Technology Select Sector SPDR (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/xlk#NYSE">XLK</a>) is up more than 21 percent year to date.</li>
