BlackRock IBIT Falls Out of Top 10 US ETFs Amid Consistent Outflows
Key Insights
- BlackRock IBIT drops out of the top ten ETFs by asset under management as ETFs gain $304 billion in year-to-date inflows.
- Bitcoin’s decline 46% from its peak, and outflows from Bitcoin ETFs have contributed to the drop in AUM.
- Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan hit back at criticisms that Bitcoin is not a store of value.
BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF), IBIT, has dropped out of the top 10 ETFs following recent outflows. Recent data shared by Bloomberg senior analyst Eric Balchunas revealed this, showing that ETF inflows year-to-date have reached $304 billion.
The surge in inflows is being driven by Vanguard’s VOO, which has already seen inflows of over $30 billion. The product is the leading ETF, with $863.9 billion in AUM.
BlackRock IBIT Outflows Drive Down AUM
IBIT’s drop out of the top ten is unsurprising given Bitcoin’s struggles in 2026. The flagship crypto asset has lost 27% year-to-date and is trading around $64,000.
Since crashing below $70,000 and losing over 40% of its peak value, Bitcoin has struggled to regain that level. This has led to substantial outflows from Bitcoin ETFs, totaling around $4.5 billion this year.

Most of these outflows have come from IBIT, which has lost over $2.13 billion in the past five weeks. While Balchunas did not share IBIT AUM, data from The Block shows that IBIT currently has around $55 billion in AUM, while Lookonchain lists its BTC holdings at 755,316 BTC.
Despite the massive outflows for IBIT over the past few months, the product remains very strong in the long term. According to Balchunas, IBIT still ranks fifth overall in flows since its January 2024 launch, with only the Vanguard ETFs outpacing it.
Interestingly, Bitcoin ETFs combined still have a positive net flow of $55 billion since launch. This is a sign that several investors are still holding despite the sharp decline and highly publicized outflows.
Crypto Expert Hits Back at Bitcoin Criticism
Meanwhile, sizable outflows from Bitcoin ETFs, coupled with Bitcoin’s struggles, have drawn criticism from many. For them, the recent price collapse is evidence that Bitcoin is a speculative asset and cannot serve as digital gold and be an inflation hedge.
However, crypto experts have hit back at that criticism. Bitwise chief investment officer Matt Hougan stated that Bitcoin is an emerging store of value, which explains its current volatility.
According to him, Bitcoin started in 2009 as pure speculation and is currently maturing, but has yet to reach the level of gold.

He said:
“Bitcoin is an emerging store of value. You cannot ask it to emerge from nothing as mature as gold. Imagine it in 2009 as a newborn. It is 100% speculation. Now imagine it in 2050 or whenever, when every central bank owns it, and it’s as normal as gold. It’s 0% speculation.”
The crypto expert also referenced his old Forbes article, noting that Gold experienced a similar volatility trend in the 1970s, when the US left the gold standard.

Bitwise CEO: In the next 6 to 12 months, the focus of the crypto field will be on the credit and lending market
PANews reported on September 18 that Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley tweeted that over the next six to 12 months, the focus of the cryptocurrency sector will shift to credit and lending. This sector is expected to experience explosive growth in the next few years. He pointed out that the current cryptocurrency market capitalization is approaching $4 trillion and continues to grow. When people can borrow against cryptocurrency, they will choose to borrow rather than sell. Furthermore, the market capitalization of publicly traded stocks in the United States exceeds $60 trillion. With the tokenization of assets, individuals holding $7,000 worth of stocks will be able to borrow against them on-chain for the first time. Horsley believes that cryptocurrency is redefining capital markets, and this is just the beginning.

Summarize Any Stock’s Earnings Call in Seconds Using FMP API
Turn lengthy earnings call transcripts into one-page insights using the Financial Modeling Prep APIPhoto by Bich Tran
Earnings calls are packed with insights. They tell you how a company performed, what management expects in the future, and what analysts are worried about. The challenge is that these transcripts often stretch across dozens of pages, making it tough to separate the key takeaways from the noise.
With the right tools, you don’t need to spend hours reading every line. By combining the Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) API with Groq’s lightning-fast LLMs, you can transform any earnings call into a concise summary in seconds. The FMP API provides reliable access to complete transcripts, while Groq handles the heavy lifting of distilling them into clear, actionable highlights.
In this article, we’ll build a Python workflow that brings these two together. You’ll see how to fetch transcripts for any stock, prepare the text, and instantly generate a one-page summary. Whether you’re tracking Apple, NVIDIA, or your favorite growth stock, the process works the same — fast, accurate, and ready whenever you are.
Fetching Earnings Transcripts with FMP API
The first step is to pull the raw transcript data. FMP makes this simple with dedicated endpoints for earnings calls. If you want the latest transcripts across the market, you can use the stable endpoint /stable/earning-call-transcript-latest. For a specific stock, the v3 endpoint lets you request transcripts by symbol, quarter, and year using the pattern:
https://financialmodelingprep.com/api/v3/earning_call_transcript/{symbol}?quarter={q}&year={y}&apikey=YOUR_API_KEY
here’s how you can fetch NVIDIA’s transcript for a given quarter:
import requestsAPI_KEY = "your_api_key"symbol = "NVDA"quarter = 2year = 2024url = f"https://financialmodelingprep.com/api/v3/earning_call_transcript/{symbol}?quarter={quarter}&year={year}&apikey={API_KEY}"response = requests.get(url)data = response.json()# Inspect the keysprint(data.keys())# Access transcript contentif "content" in data[0]: transcript_text = data[0]["content"] print(transcript_text[:500]) # preview first 500 characters
The response typically includes details like the company symbol, quarter, year, and the full transcript text. If you aren’t sure which quarter to query, the “latest transcripts” endpoint is the quickest way to always stay up to date.
Cleaning and Preparing Transcript Data
Raw transcripts from the API often include long paragraphs, speaker tags, and formatting artifacts. Before sending them to an LLM, it helps to organize the text into a cleaner structure. Most transcripts follow a pattern: prepared remarks from executives first, followed by a Q&A session with analysts. Separating these sections gives better control when prompting the model.
In Python, you can parse the transcript and strip out unnecessary characters. A simple way is to split by markers such as “Operator” or “Question-and-Answer.” Once separated, you can create two blocks — Prepared Remarks and Q&A — that will later be summarized independently. This ensures the model handles each section within context and avoids missing important details.
Here’s a small example of how you might start preparing the data:
import re# Example: using the transcript_text we fetched earliertext = transcript_text# Remove extra spaces and line breaksclean_text = re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', text).strip()# Split sections (this is a heuristic; real-world transcripts vary slightly)if "Question-and-Answer" in clean_text: prepared, qna = clean_text.split("Question-and-Answer", 1)else: prepared, qna = clean_text, ""print("Prepared Remarks Preview:\n", prepared[:500])print("\nQ&A Preview:\n", qna[:500])
With the transcript cleaned and divided, you’re ready to feed it into Groq’s LLM. Chunking may be necessary if the text is very long. A good approach is to break it into segments of a few thousand tokens, summarize each part, and then merge the summaries in a final pass.
Summarizing with Groq LLM
Now that the transcript is clean and split into Prepared Remarks and Q&A, we’ll use Groq to generate a crisp one-pager. The idea is simple: summarize each section separately (for focus and accuracy), then synthesize a final brief.
Prompt design (concise and factual)
Use a short, repeatable template that pushes for neutral, investor-ready language:
You are an equity research analyst. Summarize the following earnings call sectionfor {symbol} ({quarter} {year}). Be factual and concise.Return:1) TL;DR (3–5 bullets)2) Results vs. guidance (what improved/worsened)3) Forward outlook (specific statements)4) Risks / watch-outs5) Q&A takeaways (if present)Text:<<<{section_text}>>>
Python: calling Groq and getting a clean summary
Groq provides an OpenAI-compatible API. Set your GROQ_API_KEY and pick a fast, high-quality model (e.g., a Llama-3.1 70B variant). We’ll write a helper to summarize any text block, then run it for both sections and merge.
import osimport textwrapimport requestsGROQ_API_KEY = os.environ.get("GROQ_API_KEY") or "your_groq_api_key"GROQ_BASE_URL = "https://api.groq.com/openai/v1" # OpenAI-compatibleMODEL = "llama-3.1-70b" # choose your preferred Groq modeldef call_groq(prompt, temperature=0.2, max_tokens=1200): url = f"{GROQ_BASE_URL}/chat/completions" headers = { "Authorization": f"Bearer {GROQ_API_KEY}", "Content-Type": "application/json", } payload = { "model": MODEL, "messages": [ {"role": "system", "content": "You are a precise, neutral equity research analyst."}, {"role": "user", "content": prompt}, ], "temperature": temperature, "max_tokens": max_tokens, } r = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=payload, timeout=60) r.raise_for_status() return r.json()["choices"][0]["message"]["content"].strip()def build_prompt(section_text, symbol, quarter, year): template = """ You are an equity research analyst. Summarize the following earnings call section for {symbol} ({quarter} {year}). Be factual and concise. Return: 1) TL;DR (3–5 bullets) 2) Results vs. guidance (what improved/worsened) 3) Forward outlook (specific statements) 4) Risks / watch-outs 5) Q&A takeaways (if present) Text: <<< {section_text} >>> """ return textwrap.dedent(template).format( symbol=symbol, quarter=quarter, year=year, section_text=section_text )def summarize_section(section_text, symbol="NVDA", quarter="Q2", year="2024"): if not section_text or section_text.strip() == "": return "(No content found for this section.)" prompt = build_prompt(section_text, symbol, quarter, year) return call_groq(prompt)# Example usage with the cleaned splits from Section 3prepared_summary = summarize_section(prepared, symbol="NVDA", quarter="Q2", year="2024")qna_summary = summarize_section(qna, symbol="NVDA", quarter="Q2", year="2024")final_one_pager = f"""# {symbol} Earnings One-Pager — {quarter} {year}## Prepared Remarks — Key Points{prepared_summary}## Q&A Highlights{qna_summary}""".strip()print(final_one_pager[:1200]) # preview
Tips that keep quality high:
Keep temperature low (≈0.2) for factual tone.
If a section is extremely long, chunk at ~5–8k tokens, summarize each chunk with the same prompt, then ask the model to merge chunk summaries into one section summary before producing the final one-pager.
If you also fetched headline numbers (EPS/revenue, guidance) earlier, prepend them to the prompt as brief context to help the model anchor on the right outcomes.
Building the End-to-End Pipeline
At this point, we have all the building blocks: the FMP API to fetch transcripts, a cleaning step to structure the data, and Groq LLM to generate concise summaries. The final step is to connect everything into a single workflow that can take any ticker and return a one-page earnings call summary.
The flow looks like this:
Input a stock ticker (for example, NVDA).
Use FMP to fetch the latest transcript.
Clean and split the text into Prepared Remarks and Q&A.
Send each section to Groq for summarization.
Merge the outputs into a neatly formatted earnings one-pager.
Here’s how it comes together in Python:
def summarize_earnings_call(symbol, quarter, year, api_key, groq_key): # Step 1: Fetch transcript from FMP url = f"https://financialmodelingprep.com/api/v3/earning_call_transcript/{symbol}?quarter={quarter}&year={year}&apikey={api_key}" resp = requests.get(url) resp.raise_for_status() data = resp.json() if not data or "content" not in data[0]: return f"No transcript found for {symbol} {quarter} {year}" text = data[0]["content"] # Step 2: Clean and split clean_text = re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', text).strip() if "Question-and-Answer" in clean_text: prepared, qna = clean_text.split("Question-and-Answer", 1) else: prepared, qna = clean_text, "" # Step 3: Summarize with Groq prepared_summary = summarize_section(prepared, symbol, quarter, year) qna_summary = summarize_section(qna, symbol, quarter, year) # Step 4: Merge into final one-pager return f"""# {symbol} Earnings One-Pager — {quarter} {year}## Prepared Remarks{prepared_summary}## Q&A Highlights{qna_summary}""".strip()# Example runprint(summarize_earnings_call("NVDA", 2, 2024, API_KEY, GROQ_API_KEY))
With this setup, generating a summary becomes as simple as calling one function with a ticker and date. You can run it inside a notebook, integrate it into a research workflow, or even schedule it to trigger after each new earnings release.
