Read MoreHide Full Article

In the last trading session, U.S. stocks rallied hard on hopes of an economic recovery and likely rebound in oil prices. Among the top ETFs, (SPY - Free Report) gained 3.4%, (DIA - Free Report) was up 3.4%, and (QQQ - Free Report) moved 2.1% higher on the day.

Two more specialized ETFs are worth noting as both saw trading volume that was far outside of normal. In fact, both these funds experienced volume levels that were more than double their average for the most-recent trading session. This could make these ETFs the ones to watch out for in the days ahead to see if this trend of extra-interest continues.
