We know you're 26 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: a big deal. There might be some listeners out there though, 27 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 2: who might not be too familiar with what you guys do. 28 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,479 Speaker 2: Maybe we could start off if you could just give 29 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 2: us a simple introduction of what Juanta does. Can you 30 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 2: tell us about the overall business and yeah, what you 31 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 2: guys do and who are you so? 32 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 4: Yuinta is the first mover in the ETA business in Taiwan. 33 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 4: To date, we have been paving the ETA development here 34 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 4: in full more than twenty one years. We are the 35 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 4: first and also the largest. But however the Taiwan's ETA 36 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 4: market you know, on the undas perspective, we started from 37 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 4: the passive. In the recent year, we also try to 38 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 4: rebalance in between passive and active and also we started 39 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 4: the eating business. In terms of the a un growth 40 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 4: from the fixing cop back to twenty seventeen, so to date, 41 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 4: Taiwan is the largest bung ETF in terms of the 42 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 4: aun in Asia. We have been experiencing very tremendous an 43 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 4: growth in the last two years after the US FED 44 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 4: funds hike, so we see we'll have a very big 45 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 4: exposure and the phenomenons a n growth for the US 46 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 4: treasury market. 47 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 2: Julian, I want to get your thoughts on the Taiwan 48 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 2: equity market specifically, do you think the bull market can 49 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 2: continue in Taiwan. 50 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 4: We actually very culturally optimistic because we are almost the 51 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 4: history high, which means we still have a very certain 52 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 4: percentage regarding the downside risk, especially after the August market corrections. 53 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 4: People actually have more custures and the more actually this 54 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 4: kind of the risk advertised towards the potential market adjustment. 55 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 4: So I think the nine still young. But however, the investor, 56 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 4: especially for Taiwan's mom and power investor, they have a 57 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 4: very good investment behalf we ca bi black sale red 58 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 4: by low sale high, so they are quite reluctant to 59 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 4: trace the market high, but they are morely happy to 60 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 4: accumulate the share during the weakness. So yes, we are 61 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 4: very bullished towards the industry outlook. Regarding the AI and 62 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 4: the semiconductor. But however, if this is an opportunity means 63 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 4: this is a terms of the challenge at hand. So 64 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 4: we'll still have this kind of the strategy to educate 65 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 4: investor to balance in between the equity and the fixed income, 66 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 4: to balance the local international, to balance from the single 67 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 4: investment versus regular saving plan. So we are trying to 68 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 4: share in. Then a lot of the AI application regarding 69 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 4: the robody advisory is heavily applied by using the ETF. 70 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 4: So we see a lot of the investors quite joining 71 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 4: this kind of AI booming and also writing on the 72 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 4: potential upside of the tile equitement market. 73 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 3: An interesting fact about Julian is that he's a very 74 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 3: good singer, not just in Chinese but in English, and 75 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 3: he knows what the latest hits are. He's also considered 76 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 3: the godfather off in Taiwan, as he launched the first 77 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 3: ETF in two thousand and three. So Julian, can you 78 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 3: tell us about the Taiwan's ETF market, Why has it 79 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 3: grown so much and why is it third in Asia 80 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 3: Pacific after Japan and mainland China. 81 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 4: It's about the chicken and the egg. So this is 82 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 4: a no free launch, so it's been a while. We 83 00:04:55,800 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 4: continuously to educate and the interact with the juneral pop Puenta. Basically, 84 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 4: we have been publishing the ETA books more than seventy 85 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 4: seven zero in the last twenty one years. For many years, 86 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 4: we'll conduct more than one thousand seminar around the island. 87 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 4: So it's pretty much like the fruit prints and the 88 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 4: presence for Taiwan. We're trying to have a discand of 89 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 4: the touch base with every individual regarding the ETM investment. 90 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 4: In the last twenty one years, we have been like 91 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 4: one times one one equity one beta to four times four. 92 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 4: We have a four different asset clauses regarding the equity, 93 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 4: fixed income, currency and commodity, so we have a one beta, 94 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 4: two beta, negative one beta and the small beta. Taiwan 95 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 4: has a very holistic and comprehensive product spectrum, and we 96 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 4: also see a lot of participants from like a two 97 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 4: or three ETA player. To date, we have a seventeen 98 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 4: fifteen local, two from International, one from Singapore, another one 99 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 4: from Japan mentioned once we have actively managed ETF. In 100 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 4: the second half or the first half of next year, 101 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 4: we see a lot of Europe and the US big 102 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 4: giant is coming to join the actively ETF battlefield, so 103 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 4: you may see the participation will morning like a twenty 104 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 4: all of the thirty eight local domasile mutual fund company, 105 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 4: so you will see a lot of this kind of 106 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 4: the new player a new blog to join the Taiwan 107 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 4: etr market. I think Taiwan have a very good beneficial 108 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 4: participations and the very good regulatory framework. And also we 109 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 4: see more of the more international ETF player. 110 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 3: So you mentioned active ETFs and how that's going to 111 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 3: come as early as potentially next year or maybe end 112 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 3: of this year. Active ETFs have seen tremendous growth around 113 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 3: the globe. We've seen more than one trillion dollars in 114 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 3: active ETFs. Who do you think are some of the 115 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 3: new players and what can we expect from Taiwan's active 116 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 3: ETF market. 117 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,799 Speaker 4: As I just mentioned earlier, now the market is heavily 118 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 4: dominated by two essay classes. One is a Taiwan local equity, 119 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 4: another is a US treasury, but those two products quite mature, 120 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 4: so they are trying to enter the ETF market from 121 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 4: the two point zero the generation too, so they see 122 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 4: the actively managed ETF in the worldwide from the US, 123 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 4: South Korea, Hong Kong, etc. They have been a different 124 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 4: style in terms of the conversions, in terms of the 125 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 4: money market funds, in terms of the CD, in terms 126 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 4: of the bond. I think this is for those international 127 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 4: giants they may not just treat Taiwan as the redistribution 128 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 4: channel basis. They will recruit more and more talent and 129 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 4: the techniques and the money to not just drink the 130 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 4: milk here in Taiwan. They are readied to raise a 131 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 4: cow actively et as a cow and ultimately probably maintain 132 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 4: the form. So we are more happy to see more 133 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 4: in the more is kind of participation in from the worldwide. 134 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 4: But also people may ignore they basically have another product 135 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 4: we call multi assets. ETF is also open this time, 136 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 4: but people quite focus on the actively managed ETF because 137 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 4: it's a non index tracking at this moment, but it's 138 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 4: a food transparent. So you see Europe and US probably 139 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 4: in the second half they are ready in terms of 140 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 4: the infrastructure and the ecosystem and launch their IPO probably 141 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 4: the first quarter as soon as possible. Bloomberg magazine last 142 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 4: week have an article to talking about the AI booming 143 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 4: to talking about a lot of the international player including 144 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 4: JP Morgan, allions and the MURA they are ready to 145 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 4: come into Taiwan for actively managed ETF. But now multi 146 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 4: asset is pretty much like multi vitamin, so you don't 147 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 4: need to take like a vitamin A vitamin B separately, 148 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 4: you just take one. So multi asset can combine the 149 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 4: equity and the income into one underlying index. 150 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 2: And the ETF is the investor based in Taiwan ready 151 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 2: for multi accest strategies and also separately active strategies. 152 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is a very good question because as I 153 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 4: just mentioned earlier, chicken and the egg, So we are 154 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 4: just thinking about the products. And then if you have 155 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 4: a product, you have to look for the clients. But 156 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 4: if you have a client on hand, and then you 157 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 4: just you know, launch the product to fulfill their needs. 158 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 4: So I think this is another agenda for Taiwan's new 159 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 4: ETA player or existing ETIA player. Where are those appropriates 160 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 4: a suitable actively or a multis et a buyer. So 161 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 4: I think they're going to be another learning cuff. We 162 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 4: have to educate and to protect those potential participants to 163 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 4: know more about this kind of product. 164 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: This podcast is brought to you by HK ex Asia's 165 00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: ETF marketplace. Well you can get exposure to themes from 166 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: ai to virtual assets, small cap to large cap Greater 167 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: China to global search HKX to learn more. 168 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 2: The market is a very large market in Taiwan. I 169 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 2: think not a lot of people realize how deep and 170 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 2: how large asset managers are actually sitting on in Taiwan. 171 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 2: To your point earlier on, so I'm wondering with new 172 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 2: products and strategies coming in, whether that's multi asset or 173 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 2: purely equity active strategies for example, and you mentioned earlier 174 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 2: on there are some very mature products in the market, 175 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 2: equity and fixed income. Where will the additional money come from? 176 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: In other words, do you see money flowing out of 177 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 2: mature products or do you see is there a lot 178 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 2: of dry powders sitting somewhere else inside or outside Taiwan 179 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: that you think will go into a lot of these 180 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: new products coming in. 181 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 4: A yeah, This is also another very good question because 182 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 4: we are not encouraged to do the zeo sung game, 183 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 4: you know, because the zeosung game in the traditional mutual 184 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 4: business is very easily to be witneys. During the ipo zeason, 185 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 4: you do ipo, you got money, and the other do 186 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 4: ipo you lose money. So it's basically pretty much like 187 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 4: a Zeosung game. But for Taimewan etr market we see 188 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,119 Speaker 4: this is a lot of cross industry and the synergy 189 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 4: in between the mutual fund security banking in terms of 190 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 4: wealth management and the live insurance industry. So for example, 191 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 4: in the recent year more and the more investment link 192 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 4: insurance policy, they are more happy to use the ETF 193 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 4: as a component to construct their portfolio. And this is 194 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 4: very low cost and also can feedback very decent coupon 195 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 4: or the dividend in this case. And we see also 196 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 4: a lot of wealth management for those we could safer 197 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 4: or the depositor. They are also recognized the how efficiency 198 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 4: and how attractive for the ETF. So we didn't see 199 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 4: a lot of Zeosung gain adherents among in the very 200 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,599 Speaker 4: traditional mutual fund industry, we see a lot of this 201 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 4: kind of harmonized consolidation in between domestic international or the 202 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 4: active and the passive. We see a lot of the 203 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 4: traditional active manager they become the c funds or become 204 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 4: a very big participant towards our ETF. So it's not 205 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 4: zeus on game. It's pretty much like a co competition. 206 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 4: So Taiwan, we see a lot of deposits life insurance holder. 207 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 4: They also cross the industry to join the ETF market. 208 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 3: So if we talk about the different types of investors 209 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 3: you have in Taiwan, you have a very high retail 210 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 3: adoption with close to eight million users who are familiar 211 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 3: with ETFs. You mentioned institutional clients, you mentioned pension funds 212 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 3: that are allocating to ETFs. In terms of flows, we've 213 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 3: seen forty two billion US dollars in assets under management 214 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 3: go into Taiwan ETFs. But what some people may not 215 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 3: realize is that within the Taiwan Stock Exchange Weighted Index 216 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 3: TSMC accounts for thirty six percent of the index. The 217 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 3: next holding is then onn HI at three point five percent. 218 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 3: And so are you worried about concentration risk? Especially in Taiwan. 219 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 3: There's a lot of high diffidend products that have gathered 220 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 3: a lot of assets, including yours, which was the largest 221 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,199 Speaker 3: ETF launch globally. He has launched a high dividend ETF 222 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 3: in Taiwan. A lot of these high dividend products have 223 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 3: very good deal paying ten to fifteen percent on a 224 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 3: monthly basis. And so in terms of flows, what are 225 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 3: investors allocating to Are you worried about concentration risk and 226 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 3: what should investors know? 227 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 4: TSMC basically is a heavy problem, so we special thanks 228 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 4: to the TSMC's contribution to Taiwan's economy and the financial market. 229 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 4: But as you're concerned and the mentioned regarding the concentrations, 230 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 4: TSMC is pretty much like the other country for example, 231 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 4: like a sim zone towards the cost B or the 232 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 4: other Nvidia of the top three top five towards the 233 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 4: US market. So yes, we are trying to diversify search 234 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 4: concentration ratio through the different product style. For example Taiwan, 235 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 4: if you're using the cap weighted ETF like our Taiwan 236 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,359 Speaker 4: top fifty is a forty percent went to the TSMC, 237 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 4: So it's very highly correlated. So once the TMC went up, 238 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,479 Speaker 4: the ETA went up, but not to mention once the TSMC, 239 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 4: you know, TOMPO, the ETF also have a very significant 240 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 4: downs at risk. But this is why the nature of 241 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 4: the cap weighted so you have to highly correlatet it 242 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 4: with the market performance. But however, as you just mentioned, 243 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 4: TSMC is not so called high dividend stock. TSMC paid 244 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 4: up dividend quarterly very juicy, but the since the share 245 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 4: prices is very high, so the dividend year is quite 246 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 4: long lately, the popular high dividend etr products basically they 247 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 4: are all known TSMC holdings in this case, so it's 248 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 4: so become another diversifyed occasion. If you buy core holding 249 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 4: went to the cab waiting, set Lights went to the 250 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 4: high dividend, or in the verse co holding, you go 251 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 4: to buy the high dividend for those Patroon find investors, 252 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 4: but the set Lights you can go to the cap 253 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 4: weighting like a very focused on the TSMC. So in 254 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 4: this case, Taiwanese invested they know how to diversify through 255 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 4: search of profolio construction regarding the corn the setlights. So 256 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 4: this is a happy problem, but at least we happy. 257 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 2: Right TSMC is a happy problem to have while the 258 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: stock is doing well. And I'm wondering if in fact, 259 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 2: at some point TSMC, you know, we start to see 260 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 2: the market stake profits as well. Do you think there 261 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 2: are enough solutions to your point, enough solutions in the 262 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 2: market to be able to offset you know, what could 263 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 2: potentially be a deep bear market in Taiwan because the 264 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 2: TSMC stock is not doing well definitely. 265 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 4: You know during August, this is a you know the 266 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 4: history for this kind of kid jopped that there's three 267 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 4: times it's already took place in August and the September 268 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 4: for Taiwan equity market. Early of August, we see this 269 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 4: as due to the Japan decay in terms of the 270 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 4: curry trade. But you see during the market tumpling, we 271 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 4: have infirs ETF to hage the downside risk nice. So 272 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 4: during the market hot, people forget about the TSMC, people 273 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 4: will forget about the capt weighty ETF. So a lot 274 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 4: of Taiwanese investors including institutional investor or the corporate investor 275 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 4: or the foreign financial investor, they're coming to buy the 276 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 4: infras ETF. For the recently the market temple our infans 277 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 4: CTF in terms of the trading turnover and the trading 278 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 4: volume also hit another history height. It's very remarkable and 279 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 4: the significant so people may not just buying a hod 280 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 4: or buying a whole and received dividends. People know how 281 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 4: to you know, changes in twin trading oriented and allocation orientated. 282 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 4: So people before are tracing the ETF and they become 283 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 4: buying whole and receive diviidend. But after the August market 284 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 4: TOMORROIW people get used to using the schedule INFRASTF during 285 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 4: the market correction. And also this is another two times 286 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 4: leverage ETF for Taiwan top fifty. Also we see a 287 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 4: lot of the creation during the primary market from the 288 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 4: international counterparty because during the market correct and for those 289 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:37,920 Speaker 4: empty hands, they are baiting the rebound opportunity, so they 290 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 4: are not going to buy the one beta, They're going 291 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 4: to buy two beta. So we have a very holistic 292 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 4: I just mentioned four times four people. You really love TSMC, 293 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 4: you want to get the married and then you buy 294 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,959 Speaker 4: an hole in the TSMC. When a're down, you just 295 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 4: stick with TSMC. But a lot of investors they know 296 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 4: how to adjust their perform through the two beta one 297 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 4: beta and the NTI one beta, not just the setlight 298 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 4: just mentioned the core and the set line strategy. They 299 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 4: know how to use the vertico not just COMINENTO in 300 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 4: between the different essay classes. They know how to adjust 301 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 4: this strategy in between the different beta from the two 302 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 4: beta small beta and the one beta Nicotie one beta. 303 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, so there was a blessing that came out of 304 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 2: the market turmoil. I remember that August five, that Monday. Well, 305 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 2: you learn something new every day to our listeners. If 306 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 2: you're listening to Tiger Money, of course, if you like 307 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 2: what you hear, don't forget to subscribe to like and 308 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 2: to share, Julian, we'll not move from some of the 309 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 2: stereos stuff to some of the lighter things as well. 310 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 2: We mentioned you're a good singer. Let's put it that 311 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 2: way first, before I ask you what your favorite song is, 312 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 2: do you admit that you're a good singer or do. 313 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:50,160 Speaker 3: You want to sing for us? 314 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 5: No way, no way, time if you come into one. 315 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 5: I were trying to interact with you through the certain 316 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 5: relieve over alcohol and then we will have a memory 317 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 5: enhancement program and after AP and IPN so during the. 318 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 2: Day memory enhancement program. 319 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 4: I'm the very serious man, So I don't talking about 320 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 4: this kind of the KdV psalms. Yeah, I may show 321 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 4: you how good I am to singing the psalms. 322 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 2: Okay, Well, this is just as an aside. I actually 323 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 2: learned some of my Mandarin because of A and I'm 324 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 2: gonna give away my age if I say this. It 325 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 2: was one specific Taiwanese TV series back in the early 326 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 2: two thousands. It basically involved four guys and a girl 327 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 2: and it had something to do with yeah Lioshayan and 328 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 2: a lot of the songs there. That's how I learned 329 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 2: my Mandarin Chin feyde juebun no shuccini right and all 330 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 2: those things. So I think those are some of the 331 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 2: potential songs we can we can hit uh if Rebecca 332 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 2: and I can't come visit you as well. Rebecca, I 333 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 2: think you've another question to you. 334 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 3: So you are the ETF advisor to the burst of Malaysia, 335 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 3: k Tim Thailand, k I be Malaysia.
