There is a pattern going on today and it wouldnt surprise me if its rebalancing. ABBV, ABT, PFE, DIS, HD, NOC, GD, LMT, HDV, T all strongly in the green. PYPL, PLTR, AAPL, CRM down. Also Retailers like AMZN, WMT, BABA in the red. There is definitely a pattern to the cash flow.

From tech to more value/dividend stuff? Or is that too basic of a view?

I wantn't say growth to value so much as more rotational into sectors/subsectors. The retailers like WMT selling off tell me it isnt a value play. Defense stocks are up, but industrials like CAT are down. Biotech and big pharma are up as are medical equipment. So I think there is a pattern, I think its just rarified to certain subsectors.

Okay, so I've decided to inveset $2k in an ETF via my SEP-IRA. The $2k is just an arbitrary figure. I could go up to $11k, but I can't afford that.

Which ETF?

SLYV and FTEC have been my best. SPYG also decent. SLYV by a lot for me.

My advice is to take 5 minutes and look at the top 10 holdings in each ETF. Some ETfs will basically be the same 10 holdings. Then look at the percentage weight of each holdining in the basket. For example AAPL and MSFT make up like 25% of FTEC so for every $100 dollars invested $25 are in those two stocks. The holdings and weightings are what differentiate the ETFs and you may want or not want certain holdings or weighting.

QQQ
FTEC
SPY (or IVV)
ITOT
XLK
MGK

Those are probably the top choices off the top of my head. Note these are all American stocks. ACWI gives you all world mostly weighted to US.

Just took a 30% haircut on ITRM, live by the FDA, die by the FDA. Though it was just labeling issues so far, so might only be a delay in full approval.
