The recent performance of the China-Korea Semiconductor Index has been primarily driven by multiple catalysts across domestic and overseas semiconductor supply chains. In the Korean market, on September 12, 2025, a leading Korean semiconductor company announced the successful development of sixth-generation HBM4 memory and became the first globally to establish mass production capabilities. This product features 2,048 data transmission channels, achieving doubled bandwidth and over 40% improvement in energy efficiency, reaching world-leading data transmission speed and energy efficiency levels, further consolidating the leading company's important position in AI memory technology.
In the Chinese market, domestic substitution in the semiconductor chip sector is accelerating. On one hand, the Ministry of Commerce issued an announcement on September 13, 2025, deciding to initiate anti-dumping investigations on imported analog chips originating from the United States, potentially reducing the attractiveness of imported chips and forcing domestic manufacturers to seek domestic alternative solutions. On the other hand, news such as domestic internet giants beginning to use internally designed chips to train AI large models and the landing of the first project from the National IC Fund Phase III have all positively impacted the domestic semiconductor industry.
The China-Korea Semiconductor ETF (513310) closely tracks the China-Korea Semiconductor Index, which consists of the CSI Semiconductor 15 Index and KRX Semiconductor 15 Index combined with equal weighting to reflect the overall performance of leading semiconductor companies listed in mainland and Korean markets.
