AIEQCAmplify AI Powered Equity ETF

DYNFAiShares U.S. Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF

In short

AIEQ Most AI funds buy AI companies. AIEQ flips it: a machine-learning model running on the IBM Watson platform reads news, filings and market data to pick US stocks. Live since 2017, it is one of the original AI-run ETFs.

DYNF Most factor funds make you pick a lane: value, momentum, quality. DYNF rotates across five styles instead, letting a factor model decide which one leads, and charges an index-fund-ish 0.26% to do it.

Stated mandate

AIEQ The fund seeks to track the total-return performance of the AI Powered Equity Index before fees and expenses. Its AI-driven process uses historical, economic, and news information to select securities.

DYNF The Fund seeks to outperform the U.S. equity market through diversified, tactical exposure to style factors using a factor rotation model.

Why people hold it

AIEQ The AI does the picking, not just the pitching. The index uses historical, economic and news information to select US stocks, so you get a machine's read on the market rather than a basket of AI vendors.amplifyetfs.com
Trading since October 2017, it has one of the longest real-world records of any AI-driven ETF, built well before the post-ChatGPT rush of launches.amplifyetfs.com
The book spreads across well over a hundred US names of all sizes, so it is not another chip-and-hyperscaler concentration play.

DYNF Five style factors in one ticket (value, quality, momentum, growth, low volatility), reweighted by a rotation model rather than locked to a single tilt.
0.26% is well under half the median fee in its active US equity peer group, which is unusual pricing for a strategy with a human-supervised model behind it.
A multi-billion-dollar fund and one of the more actively traded names in its category, so getting in and out rarely becomes the hard part. Pays quarterly.
Running since 2019 under one of the biggest ETF shops, and it stands among the strongest overall implementations in the active US equity group we track.

Worth knowing

AIEQ Active-style machinery, active-style price: 0.75% a year, versus index-built AI peers like XAIX (0.35%), QTUM (0.40%) and ARTY (0.47%).
It is a small fund and thinly traded next to the household-name AI ETFs, which can mean wider spreads at the moment you trade.
The model is proprietary. You can see the holdings, but not the reasoning that produced them, and the mix shifts as the model updates.amplifyetfs.com

DYNF The yardstick isn't the S&P 500: it's a custom blend of 80% MSCI USA and 20% MSCI USA Minimum Volatility, so a low-vol tilt is baked into the benchmark itself.
Active by design. The factor mix shifts, the book runs to a couple hundred stocks, and a rotation call can leave it out of step with a plain US market index fund.
Cheap for active, not the cheapest shelf: systematic peers DFAU (0.12%), AVLC (0.15%), DFAC (0.17%) and FELC (0.18%) all undercut it on fee.
