WEBVTT - The Competition

0:00:04.320 --> 0:00:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Hello, and welcome to Trillions presents the E t F Story.

0:00:07.800 --> 0:00:10.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm Joel Webber and I'm the editor of Bloomberg Business Week.

0:00:11.119 --> 0:00:13.200
<v Speaker 1>In this episode, we're going to focus on a critical

0:00:13.280 --> 0:00:16.400
<v Speaker 1>part of the e t S rise, which Eric baltun

0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:19.239
<v Speaker 1>Iss likens to something out of early Silicon Valley. It

0:00:19.280 --> 0:00:22.480
<v Speaker 1>almost seems like webs and spy at this time. We're

0:00:22.560 --> 0:00:26.000
<v Speaker 1>like the PC or the mouse went back when Xerox

0:00:26.079 --> 0:00:31.640
<v Speaker 1>had it, where some people just recognize its potential, even

0:00:31.680 --> 0:00:34.520
<v Speaker 1>of the people who actually own it at the time

0:00:35.159 --> 0:00:41.919
<v Speaker 1>don't see it. This is Dave Noddi. He's the managing

0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:45.640
<v Speaker 1>director of e t F dot Com. The comparison to

0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:48.120
<v Speaker 1>what happened with the pala Alto Research Center, the Park

0:00:48.200 --> 0:00:51.600
<v Speaker 1>Labs having the the gooey for what became the mac

0:00:51.960 --> 0:00:54.639
<v Speaker 1>uh and that sort of that idea, whether it's stolen

0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:57.960
<v Speaker 1>or borrowed or whatever, it's very apt for the e

0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:00.920
<v Speaker 1>t F for number of reasons. It's it's apt because

0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:03.240
<v Speaker 1>you can argue about the intellectual property and is it

0:01:03.360 --> 0:01:06.839
<v Speaker 1>theft or is it you know, people just recognizing greatness

0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:09.120
<v Speaker 1>and building on it. But it's also relevant because it

0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:11.920
<v Speaker 1>was that big a phase shift in how people thought

0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:15.480
<v Speaker 1>about investing. Naught has been around E t F pretty

0:01:15.560 --> 0:01:18.160
<v Speaker 1>much since the beginning, and he says that, yes, the

0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:22.720
<v Speaker 1>Market Break Report is largely credited as the genesis of

0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:25.600
<v Speaker 1>the E t F, as that's where Nate Most and

0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Steve Bloom got their idea for spot success has a

0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:31.520
<v Speaker 1>thousand fathers. So everybody tries to claim on a given

0:01:31.600 --> 0:01:33.280
<v Speaker 1>day that they were the father of the E t F.

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:37.480
<v Speaker 1>It's really whatever unnamed person probably slid that into the report.

0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:41.480
<v Speaker 1>But I will say this that once that idea was

0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:45.319
<v Speaker 1>planted in that you know, SEC report, the idea was

0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:49.400
<v Speaker 1>in the air. Bob Tole is president of his own

0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:52.600
<v Speaker 1>E t F consulting company, but was with Morgan Stanley

0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:55.360
<v Speaker 1>in the nineteen eighties, and he says nothing is right

0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:59.200
<v Speaker 1>about there being something in the air after the seven

0:01:59.240 --> 0:02:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Market Break Report was published. He says people were trying

0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:05.160
<v Speaker 1>to come up with something like a collective investment, but

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:08.880
<v Speaker 1>that treated like a stock. Meanwhile, Leland O'Brien and Ruberstein

0:02:09.240 --> 0:02:12.800
<v Speaker 1>are really trying to redeem themselves in the financial community,

0:02:13.200 --> 0:02:15.560
<v Speaker 1>and they start working on a product called super shares

0:02:16.280 --> 0:02:20.280
<v Speaker 1>up in Canada, the Canadian Stock Exchanges, working on a

0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:23.880
<v Speaker 1>thing called tips. All of these became the precursors to

0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:28.359
<v Speaker 1>both securities. Remember John O'Brien from episode one, who, along

0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:32.720
<v Speaker 1>with a team at Leland O'Brien Rubinstein, created portfolio insurance,

0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:37.240
<v Speaker 1>but most people in Wall Street didn't understand what that was.

0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:42.679
<v Speaker 1>Some big asset managers did, some big focal dealers did,

0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:46.360
<v Speaker 1>and they realized when the market went down, portfolio insurance

0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:52.480
<v Speaker 1>required selling stock and buying bonds. As Toll says, O'Brien

0:02:52.560 --> 0:02:56.000
<v Speaker 1>and his firm were working to redeem themselves because their

0:02:56.040 --> 0:03:02.280
<v Speaker 1>portfolio insurance was largely credited to stock market crash. O'Brien

0:03:02.320 --> 0:03:06.000
<v Speaker 1>says that what they were working on was the first TTF. Yeah, well,

0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:08.120
<v Speaker 1>I think we were the creator of the t F

0:03:08.240 --> 0:03:11.320
<v Speaker 1>all it wasn't called any TF back then. He says.

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:13.480
<v Speaker 1>They were communicating with folks at the am X at

0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:17.760
<v Speaker 1>the time, and we have a handshake agreement they would

0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:22.960
<v Speaker 1>not copy our products and they would benefit from the

0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:27.200
<v Speaker 1>trading of it. O'Brien says the AMEX didn't hold up

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:30.520
<v Speaker 1>their end of the deal, so they undercut us, you know,

0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:35.560
<v Speaker 1>maybe not so intentionally, but maybe intentionally, and came out

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:39.680
<v Speaker 1>with the spies exactly one month and one day after

0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:49.320
<v Speaker 1>the super Trust began trading on November five, and when

0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I called him up, they said, well, the handshake agreement

0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:57.640
<v Speaker 1>is good for a month. Meanwhile, up in Canada, a

0:03:57.800 --> 0:04:00.920
<v Speaker 1>spy is waiting for SEC approval. A team from the

0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Toronto Stock Exchange managed to get their version of a

0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:07.760
<v Speaker 1>market basket product approved within a year. It was called

0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:12.400
<v Speaker 1>the Toronto Index Participation shares or tips and attract the

0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:15.280
<v Speaker 1>Toronto Stock Exchange Index. And this was an e t

0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:19.400
<v Speaker 1>F launched. Now, if you go around to conferences like

0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:22.599
<v Speaker 1>I do, there's a general view amongst the analysts that

0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:25.320
<v Speaker 1>Canada came out with the first TTF. However, when I

0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:29.800
<v Speaker 1>talked with people from that time, even from Canada, and

0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 1>they admitted that what happened was the Toronto Stock Exchange

0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:35.039
<v Speaker 1>had come down and met with AMEX and just I

0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:38.400
<v Speaker 1>guess they just you know, we're friends, buddies. They took

0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:42.920
<v Speaker 1>the spy idea and basically resketched it up there. And

0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:47.080
<v Speaker 1>the Canadian regulatory body is much more liberal than the US.

0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:49.160
<v Speaker 1>We've seen that time and time again. Since then, they

0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:51.520
<v Speaker 1>were in and out of approval process within a year.

0:04:57.160 --> 0:04:59.520
<v Speaker 1>Dave Nodding says he's not proving to all those details

0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:03.160
<v Speaker 1>about how TIPS came about, but one thing was for sure, Yeah,

0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:05.440
<v Speaker 1>the am X was driving it. And whether or not,

0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:08.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, Nate showed the idea to somebody over a

0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:12.000
<v Speaker 1>T s X or Toronto at that time, um, and

0:05:12.080 --> 0:05:14.839
<v Speaker 1>they stole the idea, launched it there. To some extent.

0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:18.200
<v Speaker 1>It's a little bit of I don't know who really cares,

0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:20.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean exposed in retrospect. You can make a good,

0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:22.919
<v Speaker 1>you know, thriller movie out of it. Somebody running the

0:05:22.920 --> 0:05:26.320
<v Speaker 1>briefcase across the tracks kind of thing. We spoke with

0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:29.159
<v Speaker 1>Peter Haynes, who began his career on the Toronto Stock

0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:32.840
<v Speaker 1>Exchange as an intern. I came back work full time

0:05:32.839 --> 0:05:34.560
<v Speaker 1>in eighty nine and Tips from launched and nineties saw

0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:37.400
<v Speaker 1>as part of the launch team for TIPS, so I

0:05:37.440 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 1>do have that on my resume. TIPS Toronto Index Participation

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:44.360
<v Speaker 1>Units is what they were called. The symbol was t

0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:47.480
<v Speaker 1>I P listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange on March nine,

0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:51.920
<v Speaker 1>and probably the most interesting factoid of all is that

0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:55.120
<v Speaker 1>there was zero feet. Haynes says there was no management

0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 1>expense ratio or mirror at the time, and that the

0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:02.360
<v Speaker 1>exchange ran as a way to give retail investors access

0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:05.239
<v Speaker 1>to the market with just one trading vehicle. The hundred

0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:08.120
<v Speaker 1>and fifty million dollars that were seated at the original

0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:12.359
<v Speaker 1>launch of TIPS all one million institutional investors, so that

0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:15.359
<v Speaker 1>was a bit of a surprise in the shock. Haynes

0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:18.240
<v Speaker 1>says that yes, there were conversations with Nate Most and

0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:21.840
<v Speaker 1>Stephen Bloom at the time, but that the most significant

0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:24.960
<v Speaker 1>influence on their product was not the AMMYX the Philadelphia

0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:29.320
<v Speaker 1>Exchange as they were attempting to launch something called SIPs

0:06:29.400 --> 0:06:33.320
<v Speaker 1>cash Index Participation securities and they struggled to get that

0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:36.240
<v Speaker 1>product through the sec And this was in the late

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:39.640
<v Speaker 1>eighties early nineties that they were trying this, and our

0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:42.640
<v Speaker 1>management at the time had spent some time with the

0:06:42.640 --> 0:06:45.159
<v Speaker 1>Philly guys and said, hey, let's try this in Canada.

0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:49.440
<v Speaker 1>And where we were lucky and I think forward thinking

0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:53.080
<v Speaker 1>in terms of our regulators was the time from the

0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:56.240
<v Speaker 1>time the obviously was approached to the time was approved

0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:59.160
<v Speaker 1>was I believe less than six months, So it was

0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:02.520
<v Speaker 1>late at the end of the day. A lucky thing

0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:04.920
<v Speaker 1>that the Toronto Exchange happened to be the first market

0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:07.919
<v Speaker 1>in the world to launch an e t F but

0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:10.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:15.760
<v Speaker 1>Reggie Brown of Cantor Fitzgerald, whose nickname Mr ETF, was

0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:19.800
<v Speaker 1>working at the Philadelphia Stock Exchange when the PHILIX developed

0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:25.040
<v Speaker 1>Certificate Index Participation Shares or SIPs, and I remember uniquely

0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:29.680
<v Speaker 1>that they were born from the seven Crash and some

0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:33.200
<v Speaker 1>gurus at the Philipstock Exchange came with an idea based

0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:36.480
<v Speaker 1>on a report, and I do remember they traded briefly

0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:42.720
<v Speaker 1>on the phile X, and in my role on the industry,

0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:46.600
<v Speaker 1>I always recall, Hey, by the way, the Philix had SIPs,

0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:52.800
<v Speaker 1>and unfortunately it was overlooked, not well recognized, and they

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:56.360
<v Speaker 1>were designed based on the report that came out from

0:07:56.360 --> 0:07:59.280
<v Speaker 1>the government said there needed to be a vehicle in

0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:03.640
<v Speaker 1>order to help offset sell in bounce at orders in

0:08:03.680 --> 0:08:07.040
<v Speaker 1>the marketplace, and the phil X was ahead of their time,

0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:11.360
<v Speaker 1>but unfortunately they went away. Brown says there was a

0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:14.400
<v Speaker 1>legal issue with McGrath hill, who owned a license name

0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:17.560
<v Speaker 1>of SP five under a standard and Poor's and McGraw

0:08:17.680 --> 0:08:22.480
<v Speaker 1>hill sued and successfully got in a junction around trademark

0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:26.480
<v Speaker 1>issues around SIPs and it stopped trading because of that.

0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:29.640
<v Speaker 1>So the reality is these other products did come to

0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:34.040
<v Speaker 1>market before Spy. Here's Eric again. So to sum this up,

0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:36.079
<v Speaker 1>even though you may hear that Canada came out with

0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:38.640
<v Speaker 1>the first TTF, that is true, but the idea was

0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:42.280
<v Speaker 1>in the US. I think that's important. So it's a

0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:45.440
<v Speaker 1>good footnote to the story. In the end, the fact

0:08:45.520 --> 0:08:47.520
<v Speaker 1>that Spy is the biggest et F on the planet

0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:50.600
<v Speaker 1>almost by twofold says all you need to know. And

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:53.640
<v Speaker 1>the Tips product has been bought and merged and doesn't

0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:56.679
<v Speaker 1>even have a ticker anymore, and that kind of also

0:08:56.760 --> 0:09:00.000
<v Speaker 1>matters to the story. So the fact that Spy outlasted them,

0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:02.120
<v Speaker 1>outlived them, outgrew them, and is the most trade to

0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:05.720
<v Speaker 1>security four times over on the planet as to its

0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:08.439
<v Speaker 1>so legacy. But some have tried to take away from

0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:11.080
<v Speaker 1>it by saying, well, actually it wasn't first, and so

0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:13.600
<v Speaker 1>I would say, well, it depends on how you define it.

0:09:13.640 --> 0:09:15.280
<v Speaker 1>And I don't blame Toronod for doing it. It It was

0:09:15.320 --> 0:09:18.000
<v Speaker 1>a heads up play. But the fact that just because

0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:20.400
<v Speaker 1>they had to wait four years, you can't really blame

0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:21.600
<v Speaker 1>them for that. They would have been out in one

0:09:21.640 --> 0:09:23.640
<v Speaker 1>if they could. They have been at nine if they

0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:28.080
<v Speaker 1>could have. But why didn't these products that were birth

0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:31.360
<v Speaker 1>from similar circumstances at the exact same time gained the

0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:34.240
<v Speaker 1>same success well, as Bob Tole says, there are a

0:09:34.280 --> 0:09:37.560
<v Speaker 1>few reasons. Well, first of all, you had the most

0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:39.960
<v Speaker 1>renowned index in the United States, next to the dal

0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:43.960
<v Speaker 1>Jones Industrial thirty right being the benchmark for it. It

0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:47.400
<v Speaker 1>was a full replication, so there was no question on

0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:51.480
<v Speaker 1>the back of the SEC that somebody was managing this asset.

0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:56.440
<v Speaker 1>And you had the publications that they required daily of

0:09:56.520 --> 0:10:00.720
<v Speaker 1>information to provide a level of transparency that was nowhere

0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:04.520
<v Speaker 1>available in the mutual fund industry, information including the composition

0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:08.200
<v Speaker 1>the assets, the holdings, and what the waitings were. Also,

0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:11.319
<v Speaker 1>these similar products hadn't undergone the same level of scrutiny

0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:14.680
<v Speaker 1>with the U. S. Government as Spy had because Spy,

0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:17.760
<v Speaker 1>remember was filed under the forty Act. A move toll

0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Fields was worth the weight. Oh absolutely, honestly, I do.

0:10:21.440 --> 0:10:23.480
<v Speaker 1>You could have had a structured note, but then you

0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.800
<v Speaker 1>realize you're taking balance sheet risk. At that time, especially

0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:30.120
<v Speaker 1>after the eight seven crash, nobody wanted balance sheet risk. Okay,

0:10:30.200 --> 0:10:32.600
<v Speaker 1>then you say, okay, I'm gonna buy a mutual fund. Well,

0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:34.440
<v Speaker 1>that was what everybody thought was froll to begin with.

0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:37.319
<v Speaker 1>So now you have to have a new structure, so

0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:39.319
<v Speaker 1>you have your choices. Right, you can have a closed

0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:43.440
<v Speaker 1>end fund which has premiument discounts. Right, you could have

0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:45.679
<v Speaker 1>a traditional mutual fund, or you could have this new

0:10:45.720 --> 0:10:49.160
<v Speaker 1>animal called at this time an index share. And the

0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:54.480
<v Speaker 1>index share was really I mean, it was an epiphany.

0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:58.959
<v Speaker 1>Dave Not says, a lot of Spy success can be

0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:02.160
<v Speaker 1>attributed to its no frill structure. If you actually look

0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:06.800
<v Speaker 1>at the structure of Spy, it was phenomenally simple. A

0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:10.319
<v Speaker 1>lot of the index participation, securities models and things really

0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:14.560
<v Speaker 1>were almost like versions of structured notes, right. They were complex,

0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:17.200
<v Speaker 1>they had counterparties that people weren't used to dealing with.

0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:20.400
<v Speaker 1>And I think that the genius of the Spy model

0:11:20.520 --> 0:11:23.480
<v Speaker 1>and then later the sort of more traditional forti act

0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:26.880
<v Speaker 1>versions that came after it, where they took really simple

0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:32.000
<v Speaker 1>existing structures and they used those to create what they

0:11:32.000 --> 0:11:34.640
<v Speaker 1>needed to create. Um, you know, they used the U

0:11:34.679 --> 0:11:38.680
<v Speaker 1>I T structure to you know, embed the index into

0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:40.960
<v Speaker 1>the product. That I think was a really critical part

0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:43.240
<v Speaker 1>of getting that approved. But you know, they used that

0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:47.120
<v Speaker 1>structure that existed already that lawyers were comfortable with. That

0:11:47.240 --> 0:11:49.800
<v Speaker 1>everybody was comfortable with, and they said, oh great, that's

0:11:49.800 --> 0:11:51.800
<v Speaker 1>our investment vehicle. And then they took sort of a

0:11:51.800 --> 0:11:55.400
<v Speaker 1>traditional prime brokerage model of moving large baskets of securities

0:11:55.400 --> 0:11:56.920
<v Speaker 1>in and out, and they said, hey, we're just going

0:11:56.960 --> 0:11:59.839
<v Speaker 1>to take what was then the default prime brokerage trading model.

0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:03.480
<v Speaker 1>We're going to use that to do these creation redemption baskets.

0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:05.600
<v Speaker 1>So what they did was take all the pieces that

0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:08.679
<v Speaker 1>already worked and changed as little as possible to make

0:12:08.760 --> 0:12:15.880
<v Speaker 1>something new happen. And now spices footprint is enormous as

0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:19.679
<v Speaker 1>the largest ETF with two dred and seventy billion in assets.

0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:22.360
<v Speaker 1>For a comparison, the second largest et F has one

0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:26.200
<v Speaker 1>billion dollars less than assets than SPY. It's really stood

0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:29.160
<v Speaker 1>the test of time. Here's not again. But but in

0:12:29.240 --> 0:12:32.800
<v Speaker 1>the end, all of these things come down to execution.

0:12:32.880 --> 0:12:35.480
<v Speaker 1>And I think that's actually been the story of ets

0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:38.320
<v Speaker 1>for twenty five years, is it's always down to execution.

0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:50.880
<v Speaker 1>Next time on trains presents how the e t F

0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:54.000
<v Speaker 1>really started to gain steam. It wasn't until I was

0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:55.880
<v Speaker 1>sitting on a trading desk and all of a sudden,

0:12:55.920 --> 0:12:58.240
<v Speaker 1>I could like hit a button and get a million dollar,

0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:04.199
<v Speaker 1>exposure to the cues. That was all in. Thanks for
