KraneShares · launched September 23, 2026 (45 days ago)
What $TORK is
KraneShares' actuator ETF focuses on one layer of the robot: the actuators, motors, reducers and motion parts that let robots move. It is a picks-and-shovels approach to robotics.
Worth knowing
A narrow and very new fund. Component suppliers often sell to many industries, so robotics may be only part of their revenue today.
