On December 22, with the first China-Korea semiconductor ETF unveiled on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, another example of ETF-themed innovation was added during the year. Since this year, the ETF industry has witnessed many “first batches”, including the first batch of SEEE carbon-neutral ETFs, the first batch of vaccine-themed ETFs, the first batch of traditional Chinese medicine-themed ETFs, and the first batch of cash redemption government bond ETFs. Industry insiders believe that new ETFs show “volume” characteristics. On the one hand, this helps investors obtain investment tools as soon as possible and seize investment opportunities; on the other hand, excessive competition can also consume advertising resources, and it is recommended that institutions maintain moderation prudence when arranging.
