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.
Its concentration index is above 2,500 (2,734) — a few names drive the return.
Unclassified is 41%, a clear tilt. That industry's swings will drive the fund.
0.89% a year is on the high side — about 8.9% over a decade, so it needs a reason to earn that.
Net assets of $15M are small. Thin funds trade at wider spreads, and very small ones get closed or merged.
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
Matthews China Innovators Active ETF leans heavily on a handful of names. Its concentration index (HHI) is 2734, and the top 10 holdings make up 100.0% 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
Sector weights run Unclassified(41%) · Information Technology(36%) · Consumer Discretionary(23%). At 41%, the leading sector is a clear tilt.
Expect it to ride that industry's cycle — ahead of the index in good stretches, behind in bad ones.
Weights above sum the individually listed equities and normalize that equity total to 100%.
How much it overlaps others
Even its closest peer, MINV, overlaps only 18% (4 shared names).
Funds filed under the same label can hold quite different companies, so pairing this one with another may genuinely spread risk.
What it is made of
The fund holds 52 positions in total; this page lists the largest 4 and folds the rest into "Others".
Equities are 13.9% of the fund, the rest swaps and cash — index exposure built synthetically rather than by owning the shares, which adds counterparty risk.
The expense ratio is 0.89% a year, which is not cheap. Fees come out of returns every year you hold, so it is worth checking whether the same index is available for less.
