ETF vs CEF: Eric Balchunas Says Bill Ackman Should Choose ETF to Avoid NAV Premium/Discount Risk

He added that ETFs solve many of these issues by keeping trading prices closer to NAV, improving pricing efficiency and reducing discount volatility that can hurt trade execution (source: @EricBalchunas on X).

Citi’s Bitcoin ETF Flow Model: $1B ≈ 3.4% BTC Price Move; Eric Balchunas Tests +$22.5B YTD Implication (~+77%) in 2025
According to @EricBalchunas on X (Dec 1, 2025), Citi analysts estimate that each $1 billion of Bitcoin ETF outflows corresponds to roughly a 3.4% decline in BTC’s price (source: @EricBalchunas citing Citi analysts).
