Forgive me for the possibly ignorant question.. I find the possibility of making money while markets are closed very interesting. I would like a thing similar to crypto where it's 24/7, but because I really don't want to dabble in crypto, I wonder if there's such a thing as an after hours ETF which consists of stocks/ETFs that are, on average, traded a lot more during after hours or pre market. For example, let's say on average, AAPL, MSFT, and SPCE are traded a lot more during after hours/pre market. Let's say there's also a lot of stocks in this ETF just like AAPL, MSFT, and SPCE, that are also traded a lot more during those times on average, compared to other stocks which don't get much trading during these times. I suppose you could, then, add an ETF in there too, which might be the one case where adding multiple ETF's in an ETF would make sense too, if that's even possible, which I've never heard of before.
On top of that, would it make sense for that, to just instead buy the entire world stock market then? Something like VT? Since if you can't do that, then simply holding literally everything will guarantee some movement?
Wouldn't that mean, then, you could mimic the effects of crypto being 24/7 with traditional stocks with an after hours ETF? Sure it won't be 24/7 and still as volatile, but it would be a lot better than just having my portfolio go up and down a few cents every 17 hours after the market closes.
