On the Couch with Marc Jocum from Global X ETFs: Talking Pricing and ETF Flows

Welcome to the latest episode of On the Couch, the podcast series where we chat with brokers, CEOs, and fund managers to give you valuable insights into the investing world.

In this episode, Henry Jennings is joined by Marc Jocum, Senior Product and Investment Strategist at Global X ETFs.

Marc brings his expertise to help unpack some of the more technical aspects of ETF investing - particularly around pricing, structure, and market mechanics that can often confuse investors.

Talking Points:

• How are ETFs priced when the underlying assets trade in different time zones?
• How does leverage work in an ETF - and why is it sometimes misunderstood?
• What happens when futures contracts expire - do they cause dislocations in ETF pricing?
• How does currency hedging operate within an ETF structure?
• Why do ETFs sometimes experience odd price moves during local trading hours?
• What about liquidity - how can investors get set in size?
• The role of market makers in price discovery and execution
• Current ETF flow trends - what's hot, and what's surprising investors right now?

A must-listen for anyone wanting to better understand how ETFs really work behind the scenes.
