I'm wondering if it's possible for an ETF to completely lose all its value, going down to zero. Could this happen in the financial market?

The answer is yes, theoretically. If the assets underlying an ETF depreciate significantly, the ETF's value could potentially reach zero.

However, this scenario is incredibly uncommon. ETFs are designed to spread investment risk by diversifying across various asset classes.

This diversification helps to mitigate the impact of any single asset's performance on the ETF's overall value.

Furthermore, ETFs are regulated financial products, which adds an additional layer of oversight and protection for investors.
