5:25Now PlayingWall Street tech analyst Dan Ives is lending his personal brand to power a new ETF riding the artificial-intelligence boom, joining a growing pack of finance names looking to monetize their industry renown with retail-friendly investment funds.
Wedbush Fund Advisers is launching a product tracking the investment picks touted by Ives, whose high-conviction tech calls have earned him a sizable following among the likes of retail investors.
The Dan IVES Wedbush AI Revolution ETF is launching Wednesday with the ticker IVES, and is focused on Ives’ “proprietary research.” It comprises 30 names in AI sectors, including semiconductors, cybersecurities and robotics, among others.
It’s the latest in a growing trend of money managers, strategists and analysts with high name recognition launching their own ETFs in recent months, with the tally including economist Nouriel Roubini and Fundstrat’s Tom Lee — the latter’s fund has been able to attract more than $1 billion in inflows since its late-2024 inception. Even President Donald Trump’s media company
has announced plans for its own suite of ETFs and other products, with some analysts citing the famous “Trump” brand as a potential catalyst for inflows, once the funds debut.
