From an investment logic perspective, in high-complexity processes like HBM and 3D NAND, the demand for certain critical materials does not simply increase in line with wafer count. Instead, it shows compounded growth due to higher usage per wafer, an increase in material types, or price appreciation. Consequently, during an industry upturn, certain segments of the supply chain demonstrate stronger growth momentum and more certain earnings realization.
In terms of specific performance, the Semiconductor Equipment ETF (159327) and the Semiconductor Equipment ETF (159516) rose 8.17% and 8.07%, respectively, this morning. The Semiconductor Equipment ETF (159516) is the larger of the two, with outstanding units of 21.025 billion and a morning turnover of 15.74 billion yuan. Both ETFs track the CSI Semiconductor Materials & Equipment Theme Index. Other ETFs tracking this index include the Semiconductor Equipment ETF (560780).
