In a world hurtling toward a robotics-driven future, two ETFs have already made their first move, each with a unique take on what may become a $5 trillion sector by 2050. The Roundhill Humanoid Robotics ETF (BATS:HUMN), which launched on Thursday, and the KraneShares Global Humanoid & Embodied Intelligence ETF (NASDAQ:KOID), which hit the market on June 5, are your double-barreled entry points into the age of humanoid robotics.
Although humanoid robots have been a sci-fi dream for decades, they’re now being constructed in real-time labs and production lines worldwide. Morgan Stanley estimates more than 1 billion humanoid robots will be working by the middle of the century, taking the humanoid market past $5 trillion by 2050, and reshaping industries from manufacturing and logistics to healthcare and consumer services.
