AI-Powered ETFs: Utilizing AI for Investment
AI-powered ETFs utilize artificial intelligence to inform investment decisions, leveraging algorithms and data analysis to identify opportunities for alpha generation. However, these ETFs face challenges, including high fees, turnover, and the need to limit costs to improve performance. Some AI-powered ETFs, like AIQ, have lagged behind the broader market due to excessive trading. As the AI space evolves, finding the right fund managers becomes crucial, as their decisions and tweaks to the model impact the fund's performance. The growth of AI-powered ETFs is expected to continue, with more than 150 ETFs focused on AI projected to exist by 2030.
