Trends in Dividend and Semiconductor ETFs
The dividend ETF market is entering a new turning point. With companies shifting their dividend record dates from year-end to the first quarter, Q1 is establishing itself as the new dividend season. This has led to notable growth in the dividend ETF market, with increased attractiveness due to strengthened shareholder returns and tax improvements. As listed companies expand their cash dividends and shareholder returns, the resources for dividends are also increasing, boosting demand for income-type investments. This market environment is attractive to investors, supported by favorable institutional support.
In the global semiconductor market, new ETF products are being launched. Major global semiconductor companies like NVIDIA, TSMC, SK Hynix, and ASML have a combined market cap of 369 million won. Based on this, Korea Investment Trust Management has launched the 'ACE ETF Glbanpo Cream Bun'. This product features a set of four cream buns representing the four major semiconductor companies, drawing interest from both investors and non-investors. This product provides buyers with a special experience through a lottery event.
Lastly, Hanwha Asset Management's 'PLUS High Dividend Bond Mix' ETF is gaining attention, thanks to increased pension demand and systemic improvements. With total net assets of 564.3 billion won, this product invests 50% each in high dividend stocks and government bonds as a monthly dividend product. The enhanced shareholder return and the introduction of separate taxation on dividend income have boosted investment advantages. It is classified as a low-risk asset within pension accounts, expected to offer tax-saving and compounding effects.
