00:00Now it's time for an IQ test for Bloomberg's Joel Webber is going to see whether Scarlett, Eric and I
00:05really know our stuff when it comes to ETFs.
00:08Joel co-hosts the Trillions podcast with Eric and he's also the head of games at Bloomberg which is again
00:13just charming.
00:14Joel, what do you have for us?
00:15You know, three questions, I hope. Let's get down to it.
00:20Question number one, about how many companies in Vanguard's total world stock ETFs, that's a biggie, have changed their names
00:28over the past decade.
00:30This comes from a research note from Bloomberg Intelligence.
00:34A, fewer than 200, B, around 500, C, around 900, or D, more than 1,500?
00:42Oh boy. I'm going to go with B.
00:45Just like dartboard. Let's just throw it up in C. Okay, D.
00:48I feel like it's either A or D to go to both sides of the spectrum, so I'm going to
00:53go with A.
00:53Okay.
00:54Yeah, Noah, this is an insane question, by the way.
00:56Sorry.
00:58I mean, I'm going to go with C because why would you pick nine?
01:01That's a weird number to throw in there.
01:02C is correct.
01:02You kind of saw through the little bit of the clue I tried to give you there.
01:05You can thank Athanasio Serafegas for that one.
01:09All right, question two.
01:10It was a little too stumpy.
01:13Okay, who is the largest ETF issuer in Asia by assets under management?
01:20Is it A, Vanguard, B, BlackRock, C, Nomura, or D, Omova?
01:26I'm going to go with C.
01:27I'm going to go with B.
01:30When in doubt, BlackRock.
01:31Okay.
01:32Scarlett, you're on the board.
01:33Whoa!
01:35Nomura.
01:36I don't know if that's right, but okay.
01:37Bank of Japan.
01:37The Japanese government owns a lot of ETFs.
01:39Who wrote that one?
01:41That came from Asia.
01:42That was Rebecca Sin with Steer.
01:43All right, I'll follow up on that.
01:45This was heavily influenced by Bloomberg Intelligence, as is this last question.
01:49Okay.
01:50Let's see how we do here.
01:52Under President Trump, this is both term one and two.
01:54Which day of the week tends to see the weakest performance for spy?
01:59Is it Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday?
02:04Thank God it's not 24-7 trading yet.
02:06A, Monday.
02:07I'm going to say Friday.
02:08I'm going to go Thursday.
02:10Reading his own research.
02:12Yes.
02:12See Thursday.
02:13This is also insane, and it's also from Athanasius.
02:16Oh, my God.
02:17That was a fun one.
02:17So, if you like more of this, go to QuizGo on the terminal, and you can also play Pointed,
02:22where we let you play around with some weightings, get some points, and have some leverages.
02:28Are we going to do leverage for our quizzes?
02:30We're still working on it.
02:31All right.
02:31I don't know if you would have wanted to do any leverages today.
02:34It might have been a lot of hedging.
02:34I would have gone big on the last one.
02:36A lot of hedging, I think.
02:37I was completely goose egg for this week.
02:40I don't know if that's happened before, so.
02:42Oh, it's a good feeling.
02:43What happens if you leverage, oh, I guess you lose a lot of money.
02:46Yeah, we got to bring your rankings back up.
02:48That's true.
02:49That's true.
