Rise of the Robotics Industry and ETF Performance
Following Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia's mention of the 'era of robots', several major companies are ramping up their investments in the robotics industry. Samsung Electronics is fast-tracking the development of robotics technology by acquiring Rainbow Robotics, and the robotics-related ETFs managed by KB and Samsung Asset Management are grabbing attention with double-digit growth rates. Meanwhile, LG Electronics is actively pursuing the development of commercial robots with a focus on research and development.
According to Fortune Business Insights, the global service robotics market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 18.4% by 2030. This optimistic projection is driving major companies to enhance their investments and collaborations in robotics technologies. Thus, this movement is also positively influencing the rise of robotics-related stocks and ETFs in the stock market.
Notably, the Samsung KODEX K-Robot Active ETF and the KB RISE AI&Robot ETF have risen by 14.46% and 11.81% respectively since the beginning of this year. This upward trend is founded on strategic investments by large companies along with favorable industrial outlooks, indicating long-term investment value.
