Leveraged ETFs Might Be the Cause of Late Day Trading Moves

correct. they buy (AKAIK) warrants and then ... some other firms have to go and execute the actual trades. I don't understand when or if stocks get transferred to ownership by the ETF. so its like a time-blur effect : we can say that the ETFs don't buy/sell the market, but they do so indirectly. heavy buying forces heavy buying thru the executing parties.

and that is part of the confusion of modern day casinos ... erm...sorry...finance.

I'm trying to figure out in greater depth how these ETFs actually execute and nobody ever answers me. because they don't know.

this is really important and we need to get to the bottom of it.
