In this episode of ETF Spotlight, I speak with venture capitalist Matthew Ball about investing in the Metaverse, the next generation of the internet. The Metaverse is no longer something seen in sci-fi movies but has the potential to become a significant investment opportunity in the coming years.
The Metaverse is a shared virtual 3D world, or worlds, that are interactive, immersive, and collaborative, according to NVIDIA NVDA. Per CEO Jensen Huang, it “is where we will create the future and transform how the world’s biggest industries operate.”
Facebook FB CEO Mark Zuckerberg expects it to be seen primarily as a Metaverse company and not a social-media company in the coming years. Microsoft MSFT announced on its earnings call that it was developing an “enterprise metaverse.”
Bloomberg Intelligence expects the market opportunity for the Metaverse to reach $800 billion by 2024. The Metaverse could ultimately become a multi-trillion dollars market as it transforms our lives.
The Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF META provides exposure to globally listed companies who are actively involved in the Metaverse. NVIDIA, Microsoft, Roblox RBLX and Tencent TCEHY (OTC:TCEHY) are its top holdings currently. Tune in to the podcast to learn more about the Metaverse opportunity.
