What this ETF is trying to do

The xETFs Korea AI Semiconductor (KSMH) is an ETF traded on the NASDAQ. It is designed to provide investors with exposure to the artificial intelligence (AI) semiconductor industry in South Korea. Instead of buying individual stocks, investors use this fund to hold a basket of companies involved in making the chips and technology that power AI.

What the numbers show

As of September 25, 2026, the current price of KSMH is $28.38.

There is currently very little historical performance data available for this fund. The supplied data does not include year-to-date, one-year, or three-year price or total returns. Because there is not enough verified price history, an erosion score has not been provided.

Top Holdings

The fund holds a total of 21 assets. Based on data updated October 12, 2026, the top holdings (which are a partial list) include:

• Samsung Electronics Co Ltd: 19.46%

• SK Hynix Inc: 19.08%

• US Bank MMDA USBGFS 9: 9.01%

• Hanmi Semiconductor Co Ltd: 8.18%

• Jusung Engineering Co Ltd: 5.14%

These holdings can change over time as the fund manager adjusts the portfolio.

Income and distribution explanation

KSMH is not designed as an income-generating fund. The data shows a distribution yield of 0%, and no distributions have been detected in the last 12 months. It has an income rating grade of "D" with a score of 52. For investors seeking regular cash payments, this ETF does not currently provide them.

NAV erosion explanation

NAV erosion happens when the actual value of the assets inside an ETF drops over time. The supplied data is sufficient to evaluate price erosion, but it does not include enough historical NAV-per-share data to confirm or rule out NAV erosion. However, the severe erosion-risk flag is currently false.

Pros

• Targeted Exposure: It provides a way to invest specifically in the South Korean AI chip sector.

• Major Players: The fund holds significant positions in industry leaders like Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix.

Cons

• No Income: There are no distributions or dividends for investors who want cash flow.

• Limited Data: There is a lack of historical return data, making it harder to see how the fund has performed over time.

Beginner takeaway

KSMH is a specialized tool for those who want to bet on the growth of AI semiconductors in Korea. It is not an income fund, as it pays no distributions. Because there is very little historical data available, new investors should be aware that they cannot see a proven track record of returns for this specific ETF.
