A major Wall Street player just dropped $2B on Innovator Capital Management. Why? They're betting big on a specific ETF niche—products apparently designed to appeal to retiring boomers looking for downside protection. Some analysts are calling these structured ETFs the "sweet treat" for risk-averse retirees seeking yield without the full market rollercoaster. Interesting move in the asset management space.

1. Here we go again, playing people for suckers, what "sweet traps" to package for retired elders, I just laugh.
2. Throwing 200 million just to lock in these retirement funds, it's a trap, everyone.
3. Downside protection sounds good, but what about the fees? The truth lies in the details.
4. Elderly people's money is the easiest to make, how many years has this structured product trap been played?
5. It's really something, targeting a clueless crowd to design "customized" sucker plays.
6. Risk hedging? I think it's hedging one's own conscience, haha.
7. The allure of yield is endless, but at what cost? There's always a price to pay.
8. This is Wall Street's "gentleness", specifically treating the uninformed elderly group.

The 2B is thrown in just to do business with retirees; this move is quite extreme.

lmao "sweet treat" for boomers is just opportunity cost laundering, ngl. they're literally paying basis points to avoid looking at their portfolio for five minutes. the capital utilization here is embarrassing—$2B locked into downside protection that underperforms passive by like 150bps annually? thesis is sus

Brothers, this time they're really playing people for suckers. They're packaging a 'sweet' product for retired elderly people. To put it bluntly, it's still that same trap.

Oh, it's that same "protecting retired elderly" rhetoric again. To put it plainly, it's just a new way to Be Played for Suckers.
