Our read on IVES

ETF.net Research

CWedbush turned its own AI research call into a ticker. IVES tracks a house-built index of roughly 30 AI names, reaching past US megacaps into chip-supply-chain countries like Taiwan, the Netherlands and Israel.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the total return of the Solactive Wedbush Artificial Intelligence Index.

Why people hold it

  1. 01Concentration is the point: roughly 30 stocks, not 300, so the names the index selects actually move the fund.
  2. 02It doesn't stop at Silicon Valley. The mandate reaches into Taiwan, the Netherlands, Israel and China, where much of the physical AI supply chain sits.
  3. 03Rules first, hunches second. It follows the Solactive Wedbush Artificial Intelligence Index, so the selection logic is written down before you own it.
  4. 04Shares trade actively, which generally keeps the gap between the market price and the fund's underlying value tight for everyday orders.

Worth knowing

  1. 01At 0.75% a year it sits above the typical AI index fund. XAIX charges 0.35% and ARTY 0.47% for their own takes on the theme.
  2. 02Both the fund and its index launched in 2025, so there's no multi-year record of how closely it has tracked the benchmark.
  3. 03Thirty-odd stocks in one theme cuts both ways: the focus that sharpens the AI bet also makes for a bumpier ride than a broad tech fund.
