In the last trading session, U.S. stocks were slightly subdued. Among the top ETFs, investors saw SPY shedding about 0.13%, DIA losing about 0.3% and QQQ move lower by 0.05% on the day.

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.

VDE: Volume 3.27 times average

This energy ETF was under the microscope yesterday as about 1.59 million shares changed hands. This compares to the average trading volume of around 485,580 shares and came as VDE lost about 1% in the session. Oil prices are on track for the first yearly decline in three years thanks to the ongoing concerns of a supply glut. The fund has lost about 16.7% in the past one month.

VIG: Volume 3.09 times average

This U.S. equities ETF, consisting of stocks of companies that have a record of increasing dividends over time, was in the spotlight yesterday as 4.49 million shares moved hands compared with an average of roughly 1.52 million shares a day. The fund lost about 0.05% in the last trading session and has been down about 10.7% 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.
