AIBN is a series of Tidal Trust V, which filed the summary prospectus on Monday. Tidal Investments is the adviser. The fund seeks to track the MarketVector US Hyperscalers and AI Bonds Index, before fees and expenses. Under normal circumstances it will invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, in the securities in that index. Total annual fund operating expenses are 0.41%. NYSE Arca is the listing exchange.

Defiance said on Tuesday that the fund had launched. The firm described the exposure as U.S. dollar corporate bonds of hyperscalers, semiconductor companies, and AI computing and infrastructure companies, with no stocks.
