June’s Top ETFdb Stories: SpaceX IPO, Crypto, Income ETFs

ETF Database’s most-read articles in June covered the SpaceX IPO, an issuer report on a cryptocurrency labeled Hyperliquid, covered‑call current‑income ETFs, holdings that drove the Amplify Blockchain Technology ETF (BLOK) and several new ETF launches and index updates.

DJ Shaw’s analysis of CoinShares’ Hyperliquid report was the month’s most-viewed piece. The article examined the issuer’s valuation work on Hyperliquid and summarized the key questions raised by that analysis.

Nick Wodeshick’s examination of BLOK ranked second. The article identified positions such as Cipher Digital and Hut 8 Corp. as contributors to BLOK’s nearly 15% return in May and detailed how those holdings affected the fund’s performance that month.

A Q&A by Nick Peters‑Golden with Kieran Kirwan of ProShares ranked third. The interview described the covered‑call strategies used in ProShares’ High Income ETFs, explaining how the funds seek current income through covered calls and how their approach compares with similar strategies.

Peters‑Golden’s fourth-most-read story looked at the potential effects of adding SpaceX to the index underlying the Procure Space ETF (UFO). The article reviewed UFO’s recent strong returns and outlined the mechanics of post‑IPO inclusion in the fund’s index.

Wodeshick reported that the Calamos Autocallable Income ETF (CAIE) surpassed $1 billion in assets under management, a milestone that placed that story fifth in June readership.

The sixth-ranked article covered American Century’s U.S. Quality Growth ETF (QGRO). The piece described the fund’s index methodology, which combines quality and growth factors to reduce concentration in individual stocks.

Two reports from the Innovative ETFs hub were in the top ten. Ryan Schloesser detailed Invesco’s addition of five BulletShares Treasury ETFs maturing annually from 2027 through 2031, while Ben Hernandez covered the Nasdaq‑100 quarterly rebalance and the potential inclusion of SpaceX, noting how the reshuffle can alter sector and stock weightings.

Wodeshick’s ninth-ranked item addressed new China trade restrictions and described how the Sprott Rare Earths ETF (REXC) remains positioned outside the affected exposures. Elle Caruso Fitzgerald closed the top ten with an article on a shift among some policymakers and market participants from net‑zero targets toward energy security, focusing on strategies related to resource access and system reliability.

The June rankings reflected attention to crypto valuation research, income-focused ETF structures, individual fund performance and several product and index changes.
