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 90.3% of the fund. The concentration index (HHI) is 940 — Low — evenly diversified, and the largest sector is Energy (49%). 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.

64/ 100
BSound structure
DiversificationHHI 94056

Concentration is below 1,500 (940), so no single holding dominates.

Sector balanceEnergy 49%60

Energy is 49%, a clear tilt. That industry's swings will drive the fund.

Cost0.77%/yr37

0.77% a year is on the high side — about 7.7% over a decade, so it needs a reason to earn that.

Fund size$2.4B64

Net assets of $2.4B — liquid enough to trade, and unlikely to be wound down.

Structural simplicityPhysical, 1x100

A plain 1x physical fund holding the shares themselves — no structural drift from how long you hold it.

Concentration at a glanceHHI 940well spread
spread1,0001,8002,500concentrated

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

Concentration (HHI) is low at 940, with the top 10 holdings at just 90.3% of equity weight. No single name can dominate the fund.

Good for damping single-stock risk — and equally, a big winner inside gets diluted.

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 Energy(49%) · Utilities(48%) · Consumer Discretionary(3%). At 49%, 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

It shares 78% of its holdings with AMLP (13 names in common) — close to half the same companies.

Own both and the diversification is thinner than it looks.

What it is made of

The fund holds 21 positions in total; this page lists the largest 13 and folds the rest into "Others".

The expense ratio is 0.77% 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.
