Roundhill Investments listed the Humanoid Robotics ETF (ticker HUMN) on Nasdaq on 26 June, offering U.S. investors a second fund focused exclusively on the emerging humanoid-robotics and artificial-intelligence theme. The exchange-traded fund allocates roughly 20 % of its portfolio to Tesla and another 20 % to Nvidia, positioning the holdings to capture both hardware manufacturing and semiconductor demand tied to next-generation robots. HUMN’s debut follows the launch earlier in June of KraneShares’ KOID ETF, which was introduced when a Unitree Robotics G1 humanoid rang the Nasdaq opening bell. The Chinese-made G1, priced at about US$16,000 to US$27,000, underscores how rapidly costs are falling and commercial applications are widening; Unitree’s chief executive said mainstream adoption will hinge on matching technical capability with real-world demand. The back-to-back fund launches arrive as UBS flags humanoid robots as a key thematic opportunity for technology companies and equity investors, citing advances in artificial intelligence, component pricing and industrial automation. The bank’s report adds institutional weight to a market that is moving from speculative concept to investable sector.
