One of the hottest places to be in the investing world right now is the metaverse. Indeed, given how fast various stocks in the electric vehicle, tech, pharmaceutical and cryptocurrency sectors have run, that’s saying something. Simply put, metaverse stocks are the “in” investment many growth investors are watching.

This past month has provided a number of catalysts in this space. First, there was the high-profile rebranding of Facebook to Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB). Then we had Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) announce a number of major developments targeting the metaverse during its virtual conference. And, of course, we have the recent earnings of metaverse company Roblox (NYSE:RBLX), which absolutely blew away expectations.

Right now, the metaverse is tantalizing investors with just how much it can grow. Accordingly, it’s unsurprising to see inflows into various metaverse-themed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) such as the Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF (NYSEARCA:META) absolutely take off. News that this ETF saw its assets under management swell by more than $250 million in just a few days may be surprising to some. However, given the pace of interest in this space, it appears things are just now taking off.

Let’s take a look at the top five holdings of this metaverse ETF.
