KraneShares launches AGIX ETF amid market volatility, betting on robust demand for AI technologies

by July 19, 2024
written by July 19, 2024

KraneShares has introduced AGIX, an exchange-traded fund (ETF) designed to mirror the performance of companies developing and implementing AI technologies. 

The fund focuses on three main areas: hardware, infrastructure, and applications. The ETF has an annual operating expense of 1%.

What’s so special about KraneShares’ AGIX ETF?

The recent launch of KraneShares’ AI-themed ETF AGIX comes at an interesting time as prominent AI stocks like Nvidia, Broadcom, and AMD experience significant drops from their all-time highs. 

Despite this market dip, the demand for AI technology remains robust, suggesting a promising future for AGIX.

Brandan Ahern, CIO of KraneShares, emphasized the transformative potential of generative AI at the launch, stating, “With the potential to add trillions in annual value across various sectors, generative AI is poised to be a transformative force in the global economy, and AGIX offers investors a way to participate in this technological revolution.”

The AGIX AI ETF will face competition from several other AI-themed ETFs in the market. These competitors include the GX Artificial Intelligence & Tech ETF (NASDAQ: AIQ), GX Robotics & Artificial Intelligence ETF (NASDAQ: BOTZ), ALPS Disruptive Technologies ETF (NYSEARCA: DTEC), iShares Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Multisector ETF (NYSEARCA: IRBO), First Trust NASDAQ Artificial Intelligence and Robotics ETF (NASDAQ: ROBT), Robo Global Artificial Intelligence ETF (NYSEARCA: THNQ), and Roundhill Generative AI & Technology ETF (NYSEARCA: CHAT).

Strong demand outlook for AI

The demand for AI technologies remains strong, despite the recent declines in stock prices of major AI players. 

Concerns have been raised that AI could eventually exhaust all useful training data, but there is optimism that AI will be able to generate its own synthetic data in the future. 

This perspective is supported by figures like Sam Altman and recent updates from companies like Broadcom, which have reaffirmed their AI demand targets for 2024.

Market sentiment and future prospects

While the timing of the ETF launch may seem unfortunate, the long-term demand for AI technology appears secure. 

Nvidia continues to dominate trading and fundamentals, with AI spending beginning to expand to companies like AMD, Broadcom, and Marvell. 

According to analysts at TD Cowen, “GenAI spending is beginning to expand to others such as AMD, Broadcom (AVGO) and Marvell (NASDAQ), a dynamic that will accelerate in the second half of 2024.”

Moreover, many software companies are just starting to roll out their AI products, which will further drive demand. 

The ongoing efforts by major firms to integrate AI into their offerings suggest that demand will continue to grow as these technologies evolve.

Key holdings of AGIX

The AGIX ETF includes a mix of established tech giants and emerging AI leaders. 

The top holdings are Microsoft (8.62%), Nvidia (8.47%), and Apple (6.1%). Other notable inclusions are META Platforms, Google, and Tesla Inc. 

The ETF’s diverse portfolio positions it well to capture the growth across the AI sector.

As the market stabilizes, it will be interesting to see the fund flows into AGIX and how it performs relative to other AI ETFs. 

Given the strong demand outlook and strategic holdings, AGIX has the potential to offer investors a compelling opportunity to participate in the ongoing AI revolution.

Despite launching during a volatile period for AI stocks, the KraneShares AI ETF (AGIX) is poised to capitalize on the sustained demand for AI technologies. 

With a robust portfolio and a focus on key AI sectors, AGIX offers investors a promising avenue to engage with the transformative potential of artificial intelligence.
