Our read on CHAT

ETF.net Research

CA concentrated, actively managed take on generative AI: roughly 50 global names chosen by a manager rather than a rules-based index. Roundhill launched it in 2023, when 'generative AI' was still a novelty in fund names.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation through an actively managed portfolio of global exchange-listed equity companies involved in artificial intelligence, particularly generative AI and related technologies.

Why people hold it

  1. 01Actively managed and global (emerging markets included), so the manager can add or drop AI names as the story shifts instead of waiting on an index rebalance.roundhillinvestments.com
  2. 02Concentrated by design at roughly 50 holdings, so each pick carries real weight rather than getting diluted across hundreds of tag-along tech stocks.
  3. 03A multi-billion-dollar fund that trades actively, so buying or selling rarely means hunting for a counterparty.
  4. 04Portfolio build and staying power land it in the upper half of a crowded AI-fund peer group.

Worth knowing

  1. 01The 0.75% expense ratio sits above the typical AI-fund fee; index-tracking rivals like XAIX and ARTY charge less for a similar theme.
  2. 02No index to check the work against. Results ride on the manager's stock picks, not a published rulebook.
  3. 03Fifty names in one fast-moving theme means concentration cuts both directions, and distributions are a once-a-year afterthought here.
