Markets send the signals-ETF flows show where investors are headed
March 4, 2026-Signs and signals are everywhere. They help us orient ourselves, make decisions, and act. Street signs keep you from turning down a wrong way. Trail markers tell you whether the next mile is a steep scramble or a scenic path. Even in baseball, a catcher flashes three fingers and taps his thigh to signal what pitch to throw and where to place it.
Signs and signals are information we can process and act on.
Markets send signals too. Investors today are navigating an abundance of them-elevated valuations, both optimism and anxiety around artificial intelligence (AI), rising global deficits, and tech/software-led credit stress. And now, military escalation in the Middle East threatens global shipping lanes, energy supply, and inflation expectations. The signals are loud, frequent, and sometimes conflicting.

ERShares Pioneers Private-Access ETF Structure; Clarifies XOVR Framework, Liquidity, and Fee Treatment
March 2, 2026-- Quick Take: Private-public crossover ETF providing access to select private companies, including SpaceX
SPV acquisition costs already incurred
Fund does not impose a separate acquisition or performance fee layer beyond underlying vehicle expenses
Ongoing costs generally limited to ordinary SPV operating expenses (audit/incidental).
ERShares, a pioneer in expanding access to private-market exposure through an exchange-traded fund structure, today provided additional context regarding the framework supporting private-company exposure in the ERShares Private-Public Crossover ETF (XOVR). XOVR was structured as the first ETF designed to provide private-company exposure through an underlying special purpose vehicle ("SPV") framework reflected in daily NAV alongside public equities,* within a regulated ETF structure. As the pioneer of this ETF structure, ERShares has refined the framework over time to improve efficiency, durability, and investor clarity. Given the complexity of private-exposure structures, ERShares is issuing this clarification to address potential and reported misinterpretations of the investment structure and ensure the fee treatment is understood as described in the Fund's disclosures. ERShares encourages readers to review primary source disclosures and to consider independence and disclosure standards that apply to third-party commentary on complex product structures.

Mexico Economic Snapshot-Latest Economic Survey of Mexico (February 2026)
February 27, 2026--The Mexican economy has been significantly affected by heightened global uncertainty and changes in United States trade policies. Growth has moderated in 2025, with non-automotive exports and private consumption providing the main support.
Safeguarding macroeconomic stability and reinvigorating growth, after two decades of modest performance, are critical priorities. Reducing the fiscal deficit through credible measures on both the spending and revenue sides, embedded within a sound medium-term fiscal framework, would help preserve fiscal stability.
Channelling additional tax revenues toward productivity-enhancing investments would strengthen growth prospects. Further strengthening efforts to combat crime, a major concern for firms and citizens, is essential to foster investment and growth. Labour informality remains widespread, and boosting skills and facilitating women’s employment through affordable, high-quality early education and care can help reduce informality. Mexico has recently pledged to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, which will require unlocking its considerable renewable energy potential.
