Read MoreHide Full Article

In the last trading session, Wall Street ended on a mixed note as tech and AI-linked stocks rebounded, lifting the S&P 500 and Nasdaq indices, whereas the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped. Among the top ETFs, DIA inched up 0.1%, while SPY and QQQ rose 0.7% and 1.5%, respectively, yesterday. 

Two specialized ETFs are worth noting, as both saw higher trading volume than normal. Both these funds experienced volume levels that were almost double their average for the most recent trading session. This makes these ETFs worth watching in the coming days to determine whether the heightened trading interest persists.
