• Tech is dominating ETF flows in a way that's hard to ignore. Since the March 30 low, tech ETFs have pulled in $27 billion as of recording, while every other sector combined has seen net outflows. What’s more, semiconductors are now larger than the entire defensive sector, with tech making up nearly 40% of the S&P 500.
• Vanguard's VOO has officially crossed $1 trillion to overtake SPY as the largest S&P 500 ETF. The Zoo crew discussed the milestone, crediting structural advantages like dividend reinvestment and lower costs, for VOO’s consistent gains. It’s a clear signal that despite active innovation and investor interest, passive, low-cost investing will always win the day.
• Bitcoin is losing the attention war to AI, but it's not a traditional crypto winter. Without a major crisis like FTX to blame, the group largely agreed that AI is simply sucking the oxygen out of the room, leaving Bitcoin and Ethereum looking boring by comparison while niche tokens like Hyperliquid hit new highs.
