3 of our ETFs recently went through their annual index rebalances. While investors focus mainly on fees and liquidity, the rebalancing and index methodology of ETFs are equally, if not more, important to the investor experience and returns. To that end, we’d like to highlight June’s rebalances and explain what investors can expect going forward.

The highly anticipated G20 Summit seemed to have concluded in a nice conciliatory note as the world powers converged in Osaka this past weekend. Or did it? While it seemed to have eliminated the “total risk-off” worst case scenario, and perhaps rebuilt confidence for China equities especially the new economy sectors, beyond the rhetoric, what we have is not really a pause in the trade war. The war continues as evident in the tariffs. A more accurate description is that both sides have agreed not to escalate the trade war while talks resume.

Whatever happens over coming weeks and even months in the US-China trade war, Donald Trump has irreparably broken the global trade architecture. And with it, he has also forced a realignment of the global supply chain that will likely see ASEAN emerge as a new manufacturing centre.

As we head toward the G20 meeting in Osaka, we take a moment to review the latest status of the trade war between the two largest economies today. Is it about containment or tariffs? How does the current situation compare to Japan in the ‘80s? Do either China or the US actually want to make a deal? What are the possible paths going forward?

Investors looking for China’s NASDAQ seem to have settled on ChiNext as the default index to follow. BUT what if there is an even better option in the market, offering a more appropriate China new economy exposure with better performance, higher quality, lower volatility and discounted valuations?! It may sound too good to be true, but it is exactly what the Premia China New Economy ETF (3173.HK) has achieved so far.

Most investors assume that the more liquid the ETF, the easier and cheaper it is to trade. This is true in markets like the US, where on-screen liquidity is prevalent, but Asia markets are not as straightforward. China A ETFs with on-screen liquidity are easy to trade, but easier does not always mean cheaper to trade. There is market risk in trading on-screen and though it is easier, it can actually be more expensive than trading via the underling liquidity of China A stocks inside the ETF.

Following the Xi–Trump meeting at the recent APEC Summit, market sentiment has turned cautiously optimistic on hopes of a renewed trade truce between China and the US. Some investors, however, view this détente as a sign that China’s drive for technological self-sufficiency could ease. Although the meeting did not address whether Nvidia’s latest Blackwell-series AI chips might be exported to China, speculation has risen that improving relations could lead to a relaxation of export restrictions — a development some perceive as negative for Chinese semiconductor and hardcore tech names. We take a different view. China’s determination to reduce reliance on imported technology remains firm. Recent initiatives, such as the reported requirement for state-funded data centers to adopt domestically produced chips, underscore the government’s resolve to build a self-sustaining semiconductor ecosystem. In mid-October, China Mobile also announced plans to construct the nation’s largest intelligent computing infrastructure by 2028, featuring a “100,000-GPU cluster” that will fully utilize domestic chips. Top Chinese officials have reiterated that innovation and advanced manufacturing remain core national priorities. These developments suggest that even if US export curbs were relaxed, China’s policy direction will continue to favor domestic research, production, and technological substitution. For investors looking to capture this structural growth opportunity, the Premia China STAR50 ETF provides an efficient and diversified vehicle. It offers focused exposure to leading STAR Market companies at the forefront of China’s innovation agenda — from semiconductors and AI to next-generation industrial technologies — positioning investors to benefit from the country’s ongoing technology upgrade.
