We have this ETF's holdings, but the prices for those particular listings are outside our quote coverage (currently Korea- and US-listed securities). So today's contribution and return are not computed — showing 0% would claim it did not move, which is a different statement. The holdings and weights below follow the calculation basis above.
Today's summary
Its top 10 holdings make up about 75.6% of the fund. The concentration index (HHI) is 1864 — Moderate, and the largest sector is Information Technology (71%). The higher the concentration, the more one stock or sector drives the whole ETF's return.
Structural health
A five-axis read on how this fund is built. It is not a return forecast or a recommendation, and a low score does not mean a bad fund — leveraged products score low by design. Each axis shows the figure behind it.
Concentration sits in the 1,500–2,500 band (1,864) — moderate.
Information Technology alone is 71%. This is effectively a bet on that one industry — if the sector falls, diversification will not help.
At 0.09% a year this is a low-cost fund — little drag over a long hold.
Net assets of KRW 2.0T — liquid enough to trade, and unlikely to be wound down.
A plain 1x physical fund holding the shares themselves — no structural drift from how long you hold it.

Where the weight sits — sector mix
Listed equity weights summed by sector and normalized to 100%. Each band is one sector's share.
Industry breakdown
HHI sums the squared weights. The more it leans on a few names, the higher it goes — and the more the whole ETF moves with them.
How concentrated is it
KODEX MSCI Korea TR leans heavily on a handful of names. Its concentration index (HHI) is 1864, and the top 10 holdings make up 75.6% of equity weight — closer to owning a few stocks than a diversified basket.
If you bought it for diversification, note that when one or two of those names move sharply, most of the fund's day comes from them.
HHI squares each weight and sums them: 10,000 means one stock is everything, and the more evenly spread the holdings, the closer it falls to zero.
Where the sector weight sits
By sector, Information Technology alone is 71% — whatever the fund is called, this is a bet on that industry.
Bad news for the sector moves the whole fund. Worth checking against anything else you hold in the same space.
Weights above sum the individually listed equities and normalize that equity total to 100%.
How much it overlaps others
Its closest neighbour is 310970 at 99% overlap — effectively the same basket.
Holding both is not diversification, it is buying the same companies twice. Pick whichever is cheaper.
What it is made of
The fund holds 75 positions in total; this page lists the largest 74 and folds the rest into "Others".
The expense ratio is 0.09% a year. Funds tracking the same index tend to perform alike, which makes the fee one of the few things that reliably separates them over time.
