Alright, this is a sector I spent a longtime looking into. Copper doesn't function the same way Gold and Silver does and won't ever respond with the same debasement trade as Gold and Silver. Silver is likely a short term response as well, similar to some alt coin. Copper is not actually supply constrained, it may have momentary constraints over the medium term but there is enough copper to do what people need. Additionally, when copper becomes too expensive over 6$ a lb for too long alternatives like aluminum and various other conductors start to become viable alternatives. Some things are already moving towards alternative metals in the industry to ease constraints. The move on copper has already been made across the industry most copper names are trading at p/es 20-40. FCX, SCCO, MLI, ETN, etc
that's not the vix. it's a proshares VIX exchange traded note or fund (ETN/ETF) that seeks to match the performance of the short term vix futures index and the ticker for this instrument is VIXY but it is not the same as the VIX index. The vix index is one thing, then there are vix futures, and then VIXY is a managed fund that trades a collection of volatility instruments and I assume treasuries and other things to generate a return in line with its benchmark index. you really gotta be careful man. if you have specific questions feel free to ask but if youre looking for a rubber stamp on a "strategy" that has put more regards in the dirt than I could count then im not the one who is gonna be the seal of approval for this decision. you're better off forgetting you "saw something' and sticking to regular stocks. If you see this as some sort of challenge and dont take the advice, least you can do is read the prospectus for the shit youre about to trade and actually understand how it works before it works you instead.
GEV, UUUU, HUBB, PWR, ETN, MTZ, BWXT, CCJ. They are all part of GEV, really - but different earnings dates, and different reactions traditionally to those earnings. GEV and UUUU going to remain my core positions throughout, but I'm planning on swinging in that ecosystem.
VST down 6% and ETN GEV PWR up 6%. WTF. Meta just made a deal with VST
Had to scroll a long way down to see ETN! I agree with your thesis.
**Stop betting on the Landlords. Bet on the Plumbers.** I’ve analyzed the capex flows in this sector, and you are spotting the right problem: The "Data Center Operator" space (APLD, CORZ, IREN) is becoming a race to the bottom. There is no moat in pouring concrete and renting rack space. If you want the "99% Probability" trade, you don't look at who *owns* the building. You look at the companies that own the **Choke Points.** **1. The "Heat & Power" Duopoly** Every single AI data center faces two physical limits: **Heat** (Chips are melting) and **Power** (The grid is full). * The companies that solve these problems don't have 100 competitors. They have 2 or 3. * If APLD builds a data center, they *have* to write a check to these guys. If Microsoft builds one, they *also* have to write a check to these guys. **2. The "Titans" (The 99% Play)** Instead of gambling on which small-cap miner pivots to AI, institutional money flows to the critical infrastructure: * **Vertiv (VRT) - The King of Heat:** AI chips (Blackwell) require Liquid Cooling. You can't cool them with air anymore. Vertiv is the dominant player in thermal management. They engineer solutions directly with the chip designers. * **Eaton (ETN) - The King of Power:** You can't turn a data center on without massive industrial switchgear and transformers. The backlog for this equipment is 50+ weeks. Eaton effectively controls the "On Switch" for the industry. **3. The Metric: Backlog > Hype** When we look at APLD, we see "Projected Capacity." When we look at Eaton or Vertiv, we see **"Record Backlog."** * That means their revenue is locked in for years because every data center builder is waiting in line for their hardware. That is what a "Long Future" looks like. **The Bottom Line:** In a gold rush, the mine owners (APLD) often go bust fighting over claims. The guy selling the shovels (VRT/ETN) gets rich regardless of who finds gold. Move up the supply chain.
EQUIPMENT • GEV: Manufactures the gas turbines and grid gear needed to generate electricity. • ETN: Provides the electrical switchgear and transformers that regulate power flow. POWER • CEG: Supplies 24/7 carbon-free nuclear power for continuous baseload operations. • TLN: Hosts data centers directly at power plants for "behind-the-meter" energy. • VST: Generates reliable gas and nuclear power to stabilize the grid. CONSTRUCTION • STRL: Builds the concrete foundations and site infrastructure for data centers. • FIX: Installs the industrial HVAC systems required to cool servers. • VRT: Manufactures specialized liquid cooling and power hardware for GPU racks. • EME: Performs the complex mechanical and electrical installation work.
Tough two months for ETN and VST.
Power supply is the next phase of AI/data centers. So what does that mean? VRT? POWL? ETN?

Cool thanks for the reasoned reply. Any particular companies? I did a quick search and found VRT, ETN, and TT.
Liquidity in the equity/ETF options looks bad. Likely because there is a more efficient way for the exposure. Possibly a leveraged ETF/ETN for specially exposure, maybe certain futures products, etc. If there's not already a cost effective leveraged product, seems like "vanilla" financing plus outright exposure is more efficient (eg, short box spread plus long ETF shares in a margin account)
Obvious institutional dumping on ETN
Not overly sure why power generation/electrical grid type companies are getting fucked today...they seem to be the play here with AI type plays being a tad over heated. ETN is just getting fucked the last couple weeks
Yeah not a fun day lol. I have liked ETN just for overall electrification. They have been moving further into data center, but has good exposure in mobility and aerospace.
ETN has not been a fun name this year lol.
Leveraged gold ETN. Best thing ever seen lol.
D, ETN, UWMC. Qualified dividends + electric transition to continue for decades.
The vanilla, passive index ETFs are still there, and from their AUMs that's still where the major ETF money is. > If people are willing to pay for products, companies will provide them My favorite in that Byzantian way is VXX, actually an ETN, that replicates the returns of short-term VIX futures. So synthetic returns based on short-term futures of an index (VIX) that itself is based on short-term options on another index (SPX). And then VXX has an options chain.
ETN when I didnt own it, tank up up up, ETN when I finally buy it -2% every day like clock work lol
From IBKR to Schwab, so many are guilty of this and Finra fines them… often the fine moves to not disclosing ETN’s because that results in less of a fine🤣…. Of course their system is not the best, none is currently, and to their and everyone’s benefit of course that it isnt. Trade with and not against the machine as you do in futures and anywhere right now
ETN is a good one, waiting for the next sick ass drop to buy more
DELL and HPE aren't bad stocks, but IMO they're lower margin commodity players so I don't hold them for this purpose. They assemble servers but they aren't real picks and shovels or full providers to address the bottlenecks, so personally don't fit my strategy. IMO the better plays there are VRT, and though volatile and risky: CRWV, APLD, IREN, NBIS. I also hold ETN and VST in that space, and keep a small DLR position for now. I'm just not convinced that server assembly is the winning move. They're kind of stuck between hyperscalers who are eventually going to be building all of their own datacenters and the neoclouds who are filling that gap for now.

Strange to see ETN down on a day like today
They cannot and that is why some industrials exposure couldnt hurt right now. Specifically been trying to build positions in PWR and ETN. Both electrical infrastructure companies
Nibbling on TU and ETN...I know boomer type stocks, but the one pays 8+% dividend (TU)..the other is an electrical upgrade play, if you think electrical grid upgrade is in the works, which it is. number 1 problem with AI right now, not enough power...ETN!
Good point. But if there's a tax advantaged ETF or ETN (or maybe a UCITS, not sure on that) with direct BTC exposure, that also would be a better option. My general point is that investors have a lot more - and better - options than crypto treasury companies.
Nice! Added a bit to my FLS and ETN positions.
I’ll shoot for the not basic ETF answer (even though that is probably the right move) Power infrastructure. PWR (Quanta) and ETN (Eaton). Demand for electricity is astronomically high and the grid is massively overdue for restructuring. Projections show an estimated $1.1 trillion will be spent on enhancing the power over the next 5 years.
Judging from earnings call questions, the bottleneck is neither chips nor electricity, but "powered shells", the step between construction of the structure and installation of the servers: the electrical equipment and connects the servers to the grid/generator, ensures power is uninterrupted, of the correct voltage, etc. Some plays on this theme are: PWR, ETN, VRT, IESC, FLR, ABBNY, HTHIY
Some of these stocks have had a good run but did take a breather last week. I personally own BWXT as they build the internals for nuke plants and really XYL as they are involved in water and infrastructure. They especially have the additional tailwind of all the aging water infrastructure. I don’t own it, but ETN is also a player in this space.
Thanks brother. I knew gold would eventually go back up but wasn’t sure how the gold miner ETN worked but thank you!
Took profits just before market close: - Closed Calls A: ETN PLTR WMB UBER ZTS - Closed Calls B: HUT HALO BWXT
I keep small CRWV and SMCI positions in my Compute stack and big VRT, ETN, and medium NBIS positions in my Datacenter stack. I avoid all the others discussed here for various reasons including: landlords not real capex beneficiaries, bad margins, AI is a side business or aspirational one for them, too small, or no contracts all talk, etc. (my portfolio thesis is AI-centric with ten sub-sector stacks in it, so ymmv)
Come on ETN, i just made a play on you. Git mov'n.
An ETN. Exchange Trafrf Note is NOT an ETF Exchange Trafef Find. Completely different structures. An ETN only says it will give you the return, less fees of the underlying index. The ETN does not have to invest in those securities. The ETN is backed by a bank. If the bank goes away, so can the ETN. When Lehman went under, so did some ETNs. Global X does not issue ETNs in the US. Maybe they do outside, and they would be backed by Mirae Bamk, the owner of Global X. Most ETNs closed down, less Rex Shares, backed by the Bank of Montreal, in the US. As they didn't sell, no one was willing to take on the risk.
An “ETF” can be in the form of an “ETN”. You can easily find many references on the sponsor’s own websites. The issuers call them ETFs, the prospectus lays out the exact legal structure, which can be ‘40 Act or something else, like an ETN. One example (among many) is Global X’s “FANG ETF.” Their words, not mine. It’s an ETN.
An ETF is NOT an ETN. Completely different products and structures.
An ETF is held at a custodian, the issuer does not hold the assets. If something happens to the issuer, your fund will be liquidated and money deposited into your brokerage account. Don't worry about it. If you held an ETN, that's a different story.
Even more true if the ETF is structured as an ETN vs. ‘40 act fund vs. commodity pool vs. LP, etc. but no one pays attention to those details much.
There's a lot of concerns after the private credit issues in recent weeks. https://www.thebanker.com/content/49b2787e-8efa-47ad-ac25-379d44f6e358 ("Why BDCs are at the centre of the private credit risk debate Jamie Dimon’s warning has revived scrutiny of the vehicles responsible for 40% of US direct lending") "I'm thinking of selling my company and was gonna drop a big chuck in these and live off the dividends" IMO, I'd be careful about focusing too much on risky yield. There was the article in 2020 about the person who put an enormous amount of money into 2x mREIT etns - the ETN cratered in early 2020 as mREITs do whenever there's an issue in the economy - and then the mREIT was called and losses locked in at the low. BDCs are not the same as an ETN but in general I wouldn't recommend piling into risky yield/"yield chasing." Congrats on selling your company.
Buy new bitcoin ETN and see what happens
I've got ETN as my largest position, almost by accident...bought long ago and it just surged. I wish I had built a growth portfolio out of ETFs. As of right now only 1/3 of my brokerage is in ETFs and mutual funds and the rest is individual positions. Right now I am feeding SCHG monthly, and slowly building a position in MRK, which I'll likely do until it hits $100/share.
Wait there's a 3x ETN for GLD: SHNY. Up 6x since Feb 2024. LMAO
Sorry, my bad. Made my first trade in a few years yesterday and it was a gold ETN
So on a traditional valuation standpoint, it’s expensive from where it currently trades. Totally agree. If the AI momentum looses steam, ETN will most definetly come down with it. Over the past couple months (since last earnings) it has sorta traded sideways but certainly in lag to the AI momentum (that was a AC power joke regarding power factor). VRT is very, very rich at these levels due to its best-in-class cooling technology, but so is GEV. How to put a valuation on CEG, TLN, and VST I have struggled with as well. Sold CEG but still holding VST. TLN never made a ton of sense to me as for one, only a single nuclear site in central PA and they are still working on convert sites of gas.
Me no longer holding shares in ETN is mostly about me thinking I had too much exposure. I'm not 100% sure its valuation really matters here if ish goes down in the AI sector as I think they'll all mostly just go down together.
Curious why you are skeptical on ETN at these levels? Currently holding and I felt out of all the infrastructure plays, it’s the most undervalued because it’s a more diverse pure play electrification industrial also with aerospace, automation, and high voltage exposure. So, I’m currently assuming I’m just stupid and missing something.
Really don't like to be negative here, but I wouldn't be buying names like CEG, ETN, or VRT right now (I've owned all 3 at some point, dumped VRT and moved on too easily though I did with a profit, and sold ETN just to slash my exposure to AI infra in half, still hold CEG and am so glad I stood my ground in the spring on both it and ETN, but it's making me a little nervous). There's probably still more that can be milked out of this cow, but I think the majority of the move has happened, heck while NVDA has a tidy positive year, it isn't as epic as 2023 and 2024 were.
I like to invest in more hidden companies that people and companies rely on. Starbucks is not at all that, but not to say you can’t invest in them. One example is Eaton, ETN, they make the most random stuff sometimes, but they have capacitors in electronics everywhere, breakerboxes and transformers for power, they even have golf clubs, though I’ve never seen their golf clubs.
Two days after I created a “gold” watch list with many of the 2x and 3x ETN’s is when gold did this. Once shit gets too much attention is when it goes down. Pretty wild.
Time to look at AI build out, not so much direct AI. ETN calls.
I think VRT is the better short of your list. We are already seeing hyperscalers looking to move into their own cooling solutions. CRDO and ETN are dangerous to go against since their narratives are optical connections (which is going to grow regardless of data center count) and power density (again doesn’t rely on datacenter count).
ETN, VRT, NBIS in order from least to most speculative. Eaton has been an industry leader for a while now, so no reason to think it’s about to stop now that demand for electrical buildouts is exploding.
There used to be a steepener ETN (STPP) but it closed in 2020. Obviously you can construct your own steepener with interest rate futures. It's not as hands-off as an ETN though.
all ETFs are open-ended by default, maybe there werr ETN which is closed of I am not mistaken. Closed-end would mean limited number of shares, which would mean bigger Price Premium over NAV because of the demand. Open-ended would kill the premium and align the price with the NAV. Will need to dig more.
interesting, are they a ETN or ETF? maybe the way they calculate the NAV as Unit Trust (like an index) instead of Price (like a stock), will need to dig that info now. Thanks for the head up.
Even better than Robin Hood is the ETN $HOOW which not only follows hood, but also pays a dividend. Weekly…

They're right. Buy ETN
Ur missing Emerson electric (EMR). I feel they have something to do with this data center hooplah. They r competitors with Eaton (ETN) in some cases I believe.
My positions: APLD NNE QBTS CCJ SMR ETN MTZ AVGO PLTR NVDA I’ve been holding I don’t really trade or even check my account too much. I probably won’t sell or trim at all in 2025 to avoid realizing gains and paying short term capital gains (learned my lesson last year paid 400k in taxes)
ETN 👍🏼, TSM instead of AMD/INTC. SOUN instead of PLTR.
Imagine being full in BTC when monetary system of the world collapses - even now it's rare to pay in BTC and most of that system get price in FIAT to calculate BTC amount. So GLD probably, but physical, not ETN
i'd like to add GEV, ETN, EMR, ETR, PWR, and DUK... i sold out of GEV but will buy heavy on a big retrace i think the sleeper is DUK which is second only to CEG in number of nuclear reactors... they are located in the carolinas and charlotte is a rising business/tech hub...
Do VIX ETN's count? You can trade some of them like VXX but not VIXY even though they derive from the same instrument , /VX30.
UPS, ETN, or HON you heard it here first
The short leg of one of my 15 Dec 2023 ETN bull call spreads was assigned six weeks early when someone bought the 3 Nov 2023 dividend.
Welp, add ETN, S, and PANW to the list of stocks that have blown up my portfolio in the past week. Sheesh.
Welp I guess maybe I was wrong, I felt like that was a good quarter for ETN in a really exciting segment. Valuation was a bit on the high side, but down nearly 8% is just not justified.
Feeling cute, might buy the dip on ETN ... seems like an overreaction.
Wow definitely feel the sell off for ETN is overblown. Part of the electrification if this power demand is in fact real.
Eaton (ETN) earnings: • Second quarter earnings per share of $2.51, a second quarter record and up 1% over 2024, and record quarterly adjusted earnings per share of $2.95, up 8% over 2024 • 8% organic sales growth, at the high end of guidance, and strong year-over-year backlog growth of 15% in Electrical and 16% in Aerospace • Second quarter record segment margins of 23.9%, at the high end of guidance • Twelve-month rolling average orders acceleration in Electrical Americas to up 2%, driven by data center momentum, with strong Aerospace order growth, up 10% • Total book-to-bill ratio of 1.1 for the combined Electrical sector and Aerospace segment on a rolling twelve-month basis • For full year 2025, earnings per share expected to be between $10.41 and $10.61, up 11% at the midpoint over 2024, and adjusted earnings per share expected to be between $11.97 and $12.17, up 12% at the midpoint over 2024 Shares currently down in pre-market on what was a good not great quarter
ETN looks good. They won't rally like GEV but they're the backbone for data center expansion.
Want an easy okay? ETN calls at EoD... sell within first 30 minutes on open following day. Works until it doesn't.
For todays plays I have way too many, SBUX & ADP puts(Might sell SBUX before close). ETN, QRVO, STX, and VRNS calls. Roughly about $2k in each ticker
Smart to pick up stocks in April. "...be greedy when others are fearful." Some data center stocks to look at: DOV, ETN, GEV Other ideas: AMZN, COF Several think may get sluggish in the 3rd quarter. Might be a good idea to add to your current positions then or pick up a new stock.
According to ChatGPT, these are the top-5 hidden S&P 500 stocks that could be strong setups for call options next week - Quanta Services (PWR) - Eaton Corporation (ETN) - Veeva Systems (VEEV) - Argan (AGX) - Chewy (CHWY) Believe it or not, calls!
The range of roll costs is extremely high, because black swan events are by definition not predictable. The roll is usually negative (a cost, due to contango) because there is more time for unpredictable events to happen (2 month out vs 1 month out). The roll can also be positive (a roll gain, due to backwardation) because volatilty is expected to fall in the future. This can happen immediately after a high volatility event, like Covid, liberation day, etc. but does not last long because the market will eventually demand a premium for time. This M1-M2 spread can be summed up as "the amount of volatility increase market participants expect in the future." In options lingo, this is similar to Gamma, so if you long VIX then have Gamma exposure. It can also be described as an "acceleration." The spread is high if market expects an acceleration of volatility in the future. If the expected volatility increase is not realized ("the predicted bad events don't happen"), then the spread is reduced, M1/M2 fall quickly and UVIX loses a lot of money. If the volatility event does happen, then the spread closes, as spot VIX increase, and will sometimes increase higher than M1. If the event is bad enough (trade war for ex) then M1-M2 changes to backwardation because really bad events are not expected to affect markets for a very long time. So what kind of periods can be thought of as "markets expect an acceleration of volatility in the future?" As I described, post-black swan events, volatility is actually expected to fall. However, as volatility falls as expected, the volatility event causes aftershocks like an earthquake, for example fear of the event causing real harm to the economy. So post-volatility events when volatility falls is when you see a high M1-M2 spread. An example is post-Covid. The spread is also higher when expected volatility is so low, that spot VIX falls to low 10s, or even single digits. In this case, volatility is expected to accelerate because such a low VIX is also abnormal. An example is 2016-2018 due to Trump's first term simulative tax cuts. Now to put some numbers, VXX is the ETN mostly showing roll costs, because it's not affected by things like leverage decay, so if VIX futures are unchanged, VXX rises or falls purely based on rolling futures. VXX is down close to -100% since inception, but there is an average yearly rate. T**his turns out to be around -45% per year, or daily, around -0.02% to -0.03% per day.**
It tough to tell exactly what your thesis is here, between the formatting, ETN use, and options layered in with no defined strike. (I think that delta should be negative?) But it seems like you're betting volatility will drop in a very short period after the Fed meeting, possibly with a strike around $46? Really depends on what we look like Monday I guess. I'm betting the opposite. VIX is under 15, hasn't been below since Christmas. Hasn't spent much time this low in over a year. Why would it continue to drop meaningfully? The market is pretty "risk on" right now and you're basically betting the floor is going to fall out to a historical level. Maybe a rate cut? I'm thinking all those record highs will make people want to stay in their long term positions, keep those gains going if they can, but hedge a bit into earnings. And that drives VIX. Good luck.
lightweight prediction but ETN is gonna absolutely soar considering GEV is in the stratosphere post earnings
Thoughts on playing the electrical power and grid modernization trend the same way smart money played semiconductors 10 years ago? $PWR $ETN $GRID
Cramer is right most of the times. this one is no exception. As an ex party power guy, i knew the fact electrical infrastructure in the US is a disaster. anything related to power equipment is a buy. ETN is a cheaper alternative Emerson is a new addition to grny etf, Tom lee. It’s an industry wide issue.. buy it
The problem with derivatives direct or indirectly chained is the overhead in auditing and enforcement. A token of a token of a token of a... Every new scheme to make it as hard as possible for CFTC/NFA/IRS/FINRA/SEC to analyze derivatives attracts even more scrutiny. What entity can file a claim in bankruptcy? Would they be secured or unsecured creditor? Imagine a token on a token on a theoretical swap on HOOD with counterparty backed in bitcoin? Homework: in a theoretical 24 hour collapse to BTC 1k, when is SBIT trading halted? Can I tokenize an ETN (unsecured debt security)? Someone issue XIV tokens to sell rights of class holders in XIV Credit Suisse lawsuit? How silly can we get? Bitcoin attraction was that it could 50,000x in 10 years, and then you could find a bagholder. Now bitcoin maybe 2x in past 5 years? So like 1.15\^5 = 2x? What happens when it loses money over 5 years compared to VOO, BRKB, GLD? All the hype about a calculation being involved or "proof of bullshit" was never a driver for anyone putting money into BTC. It was that you could find someone else to sell it to for more than you paid, ....maybe... Calling it: It is over RIP July 4 2025. Cause: the tokenization of some private company's equity held by another entity that has no contractual right to issue the public said equity, and thus is collecting money for an 'idea' secured by a concept of a potential contractual obligation? This level of BS can exceed the markets tolerance for silliness resulting in a crypto collapse and insane pressure on US government debt. Only those using Reddit will be saved. The revolution will not be televised.
