SEC delays decision on VanEck ETF
The SEC extended its review of Nasdaq’s April 9, 2025, proposal to list the VanEck Avalanche ETF and set July 28, 2025, as the new deadline for a final decision. Because the original 45-day review period would have ended on June 13, 2025, investors and traders must wait until July 28, 2025 for the SEC to approve, disapprove, or start proceedings to disapprove the listing.
