Innovator Capital Management rolled out the Uncapped Bitcoin 20 Floor ETF – Quarterly (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QBF#BATS">QBF</a>), on Feb. 6, with a competitive <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/bitcoin-etf">expense ratio of 0.79%.</a>
The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">ETF offers investors exposure</a> to Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) price movements while safeguarding investments against significant losses, allowing investors to capture up to 80% of Bitcoin's positive price swings over a quarterly period.
The launch of QBF comes at a time when demand for cryptocurrency exposure is surging, as the crypto world becomes more regulated.

One important differentiating factor of this ETF is it ensures that investors will not lose more than 20% of any price decline, putting hesitant investors at ease.

Unlike traditional Bitcoin ETFs that invest directly in the cryptocurrency, QBF tracks Bitcoin's price movements in a controlled manner. This approach offers investors and financial advisors a structured way to gain crypto exposure without the full brunt of market turbulence.
&#8220;The Fund provides investment exposure to the price return of bitcoin (i.e., "spot" bitcoin prices) (the&nbsp;"Bitcoin Price") by investing in a combination of FLexible EXchange&nbsp;Options ("FLEX Options") that reference one or more exchange-traded&nbsp;products that hold bitcoin directly (each, a&nbsp;"Bitcoin ETP") or the CBOE Bitcoin U.S. ETF Index,&#8221; read an excerpt from its prospectus submitted with the SEC.
&#8220;The Fund seeks to provide shareholders that hold Shares for the entire Outcome Period with a maximum loss experienced by the Bitcoin Price of 20% (the&nbsp;"Floor") over the course of the Outcome Period by holding 80% of the Fund's assets in U.S. Treasuries in order to preserve the Fund's capital in the event the FLEX Options expire worthless,&#8221; the prospectus further read.
The cryptocurrency ETF market continues to expand, with investors increasingly seeking innovative investment solutions. 
As Bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency market mature, funds like QBF signal a shift toward structured, risk-managed investment products that are suitable for seasoned investors as well as newcomers looking for safer exposure to digital assets.

Artificial intelligence has once again taken center stage in the tech world, and this time, it's because of DeepSeek, a Chinese AI company that's making waves. Personal finance expert <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43501133/suze-orman-sounds-alarm-on-retirement-readiness-40-of-retirees-lack-3-months-savings-heres-how-t">Suze Orman</a> recently weighed in on the controversy surrounding the AI-powered assistant, warning that DeepSeek could face scrutiny similar to TikTok due to concerns about data security and foreign influence.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Is DeepSeek?</h2>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/02/43519253/deepseek-founder-liang-wenfeng-says-china-put-profits-over-innovation-but-now-beijing-must-build-a-tech-ecosystem-to-rival-nvidia">DeepSeek</a>, a Hangzhou-based startup, has developed AI models that rival those of leading U.S. tech firms. According to media reports, the company's DeepSeek-V3 model required less than $6 million in computing power to train, making it a cost-efficient alternative to models developed in the United States. The AI-powered assistant has surged in popularity, even surpassing OpenAI's ChatGPT as the top-rated free app on Apple's App Store.

</ul>
This has raised concerns among U.S. tech investors and policymakers, especially as major AI firms like OpenAI and Meta (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) continue to invest billions into AI research. DeepSeek's rapid rise has also sparked questions about whether U.S. tech companies' AI strategies need to be reevaluated.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Suze Orman's Concerns About DeepSeek</h2>
On a <a href="https://omny.fm/shows/suze-ormans-women-and-money/suze-school-now-is-not-the-time-to-panic">recent episode</a> of her Women &amp; Money podcast, Orman addressed the growing concern over DeepSeek, warning listeners about potential data security risks. She compared it with the ongoing controversy surrounding TikTok, which is facing a possible ban in the U.S. due to fears that data collected by the app could be accessed by the Chinese government.
Orman explained why she refuses to download the DeepSeek app, saying, "Everybody is having a fight right now over TikTok&#8230; because China has made it so that everybody that's on that app, they are gathering the information. They are finding out everything about them. They're recording every keystroke, everything that they do."&nbsp;
Trending: They call it the &#8216;Biggest Disruption To IP Since Disney&#8217; and their funding window is closing. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/elf-labs-1">Less than 10 days for investors to claim shares at just $2/share with $980 minimum.</a>
She then questioned whether DeepSeek could be engaging in similar data collection practices, adding, "Probably all the information that everybody is using on it, the questions that they're asking, everything is going to be gathered and somehow be weaponized against the United States."
While Orman's remarks reflect growing concerns about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/02/43476917/deepseek-a-trojan-horse-kevin-oleary-calls-bs-on-deepseeks-6m-budget-claims-they-ripped-off-60k-nvidia-chips-from-the-black-market">AI and national security</a>, there is currently no publicly available evidence that DeepSeek is involved in data collection for the Chinese government. However, her warning highlights a broader debate about AI regulation and the role of foreign tech companies in the U.S. market.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">DeepSeek's Connection to Beijing and AI Regulation Concerns</h2>
One of the factors fueling skepticism about DeepSeek is its connection to China's government. Media reports that DeepSeek founder Liang Wenfeng attended a closed-door symposium with Chinese Premier Li Qiang suggests the company's work is of interest to China's leadership.
Additionally, U.S. experts have raised concerns about how DeepSeek managed to develop its advanced AI models despite Washington's export controls, which restrict the sale of high-end AI chips to China. Some industry analysts suspect DeepSeek may have acquired these chips through undisclosed channels, though the company has not commented on these allegations.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next for DeepSeek in the U.S.?</h2>
DeepSeek's rise could put it on a similar path to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/01/43088960/trump-suspends-us-tiktok-ban-for-75-days-with-executive-order-but-legal-and-market-uncertainty-looms-over-platforms-future">TikTok</a>, which has faced calls for restrictions and even an outright ban in the U.S. due to national security concerns. As AI continues to evolve, regulators may push for increased oversight of foreign AI models operating within the country.
For now, Orman advises caution. "There are so many great AI apps right here in the United States&#8230; I would stay as far away from DeepSeek as I possibly can," she said on her podcast.
Whether DeepSeek will face restrictions similar to TikTok remains to be seen. However, its success has undoubtedly intensified the global AI race, and U.S. policymakers will likely be watching its next moves closely.

</ul>
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
RBC Capital Markets: Fortive's adjusted cash earnings of $1.17 per share came in 6 cents higher than RBC's estimates, driven by a lower tax rate, Dray said in a note. Core earnings grew by 1.8% year-on-year, a tad above the estimate of 1.3%, he added.
The company expected China to remain a headwind and continue to pressure results through 2025, the analyst stated. The spinoff of Precision Technologies is expected to be completed early in the third quarter, earlier than the previously planned fourth quarter, he added.
Truist Securities: While earnings beat expectations, Fortive reported sales of $1.62 billion, missing the consensus of $1.629 billion, Cook said. Management guided to first-quarter adjusted earnings of 83 to 86 cents per share, below consensus of 91 cents per share, he added.
The company sees revenues of $1.48 billion to $1.51 billion, missing consensus of $1.565 billion, the analyst stated. "FTV introduced fiscal year 2025 guidance with adjusted EPS expected to be $4.00–$4.12 or $4.06 at the midpoint, below consensus at $4.13 with FX expected to be a ~$0.20 headwind," he further wrote.
Price Action: Shares of Fortive had risen by 1.85% to $80.55 at the time of publication on Monday.
