ROBT: Lost In The Stack; One Of The Worst AI ETFs

First Trust Nasdaq Artificial Intelligence and Robotics ETF is structurally flawed due to its equal-weight, 138-stock portfolio lacking a coherent AI thesis. ROBT underperforms peers during the AI supercycle, with a Sharpe ratio of 0.49 and a high 1.92 beta, failing to capture true AI infrastructure value. The fund's 0.65% expense ratio is unjustified given its passive, undifferentiated approach and mediocre returns compared to conviction-driven competitors like BOTZ and AIQ.
