Find out what it is. CNBC ETF Edge at 1 PM ET Monday.   An ugly week for commodity ETFs, hit with a double whammy: the Fed implying it might reduce bond buying and raise rates a bit sooner than expected, and China announcing it was releasing stockpiles of commodities to reduce prices.  Lumber ETFs had a particularly bad week.    The SEC has again delayed making a decision on the VanEck bitcoin ETF. They now have until Aug. 3, 2021 to give thumbs up or thumbs down. Seems like they are still concerned about fraud and manipulation.     Dimensional Funds successful conversion of four of its mutual funds into ETFs on Monday will likely spur others to act, according to Bloomberg and Citigroup.
