In the last trading session, U.S. stocks were mixed. Among the top ETFs, investors saw SPY losing about 0.3%, DIA gaining about 0.2% and QQQ move higher by 0.03% on the day. There was an air of optimism in the market on news that China made the ninth largest one-day purchase of U.S. soybeans in a decade. This gave cues of a trade truce between the duo.

Two more specialized ETFs are also worth watching 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 of the last trading session. This could make these ETFs ones to watch out for in the days ahead to see if this trend of extra-interest continues.

IWV : Volume 3.33 times average

This all-cap U.S. ETF was in the spotlight yesterday as nearly 1.26 million shares moved hands compared with an average of roughly 379,990 million shares a day. The fund lost about 0.2% in the last trading session and was down about 2.8% in the past one month.

BSV : Volume 2.97 times average

This short-term U.S. Treasury and agency obligations ETF was under the microscope yesterday as about 5.6 million shares changed hands. This compares to the average trading volume of around 1.88 million shares and came as BSV gained about 0.1% in the session. The fund gained despite rising rate concerns. The fund has added about 0.7% in the past one month.

Zacks Names "Single Best Pick to Double"

From thousands of stocks, 5 Zacks experts each have chosen their favorite to skyrocket +100% or more in months to come. From those 5, Director of Research Sheraz Mian hand-picks one to have the most explosive upside of all.

It’s a little-known chemical company that’s up 65% over last year, yet still dirt cheap. With unrelenting demand, soaring 2022 earnings estimates, and $1.5 billion for repurchasing shares, retail investors could jump in at any time.

This company could rival or surpass other recent Zacks’ Stocks Set to Double like Boston Beer Company which shot up +143.0% in little more than 9 months and NVIDIA which boomed +175.9% in one year.
