Mirae Asset Global Investments explained that this trend is linked to changes in artificial intelligence (AI) computing architecture. As AI evolves from simply providing responses to becoming "Agentic AI," which repeatedly performs self-reasoning, action, and adjustment, the demand for memory semiconductors is structurally increasing.



Jung Euihyeon, Head of ETF Management at Mirae Asset Global Investments, stated, "With the spread of Agentic AI, memory semiconductor demand has entered a phase of structural growth, rather than a short-term cycle. Investors who have a positive outlook on the growth potential of Korea's semiconductor industry, led by Samsung Electronics and SK hynix, can take a more active investment approach through the TIGER Semiconductor TOP10 Leverage ETF."
