Investors often overlook fees when trading ETFs, focusing instead on short-term gains. In volatile markets like that of MicroStrategy, even high fees may not deter traders due to potential daily price swings.

This pattern can lead to the deterioration of originally beneficial concepts, evident in the evolution of instruments like credit default swaps and various trading strategies. Caution and awareness of market manipulation are essential when navigating ETF investments.
