Index Rules

Methodology: equal-weight at each rebalance, USD-denominated, and reviewed daily after the automated update. The page and constituents CSV show current drifted weights before rebalance. This index intentionally excludes semiconductor and memory names so robotics traffic and performance can be tracked separately.

Methodology and Use

What the index measures

The basket isolates robotics and physical AI exposure from the semiconductor index. It focuses on sensing, platform robotics, collaborative automation, and warehouse systems.

How to read changes

Index moves should be checked against real deployments, robotics revenue, customer concentration, margin progression, and whether the market is pricing platform optionality ahead of reported results.
