SPY no good?

I'm trying to understand the concepts before getting involved. What makes an index ETF better or worse (other than fees)?

Are you familiar with these ETFs?

Auph
Tenx
Fate

Curious why those? Got into EXPE before earnings. Has a good track record.

The daily chart is so not natural, it's about time to stop the bleeding.

Why is that?
It dropped tremendously but the financials aren't that bad for this price

DRYS is doing a 8:1 reverse split on Monday, will this cause the stock to tank even more?

I have no doubt that someone is behind it and manipulating it, I hope this someone will end up in jail.. This makes no sense what's so ever.

Here's my prediction FWIW. The famous Trump bump reflected knowledgeable investors pricing in the possibility of favorable changes to corporate tax policy. If definitive movements towards such changes don't materialize in the near future, I expect a rapid reversal. Also, with interest rates predicted to continue rising this year I expect both a contraction in the money supply and an increase in the variety of investment vehicles that will provide an attractive return for long term savings, neither of which is good for the demand half of the equity market. Achieving psychological milestones like dow at 20,000 makes a correction seem more and not less imminent.

When you factor in the percentage of invested assets that are being passively managed it is no surprise that spikes and corrections seem to happen long after fundamentals start to indicate their likelihood. I'm with JTZ in hoping this is not what will happen, though I don't agree with the goalposts philosophy at all.

I'm an optimist but only because life isn't going to give me any other good choices.
