Overview

The WisdomTree Artificial Intelligence and Innovation Fund is a thematic ETF issued by WisdomTree with $715 million in assets under management. It holds a C grade and ranks second among 17 similar funds, placing it 164th out of 458 tracked ETFs overall. The fund charges an expense ratio of 0.45%, which is notably lower than the category median of 0.68%. It offers a dividend yield of 1.29%, significantly higher than the 0.49% median for its peers. The top ten holdings comprise 37.1% of assets, with Micron Technology Inc representing the largest single position at 5.2%.

The fund’s price sits at 72.0% of its 52-week range, reflecting a strong upward trajectory over the past year. One-year returns of 64.62% substantially outpace the category median of 27.86%, driven by a 45.40% gain in the last six months. This momentum contrasts with a -1.52% decline over the past three months, indicating a recent deceleration in growth. The rating was upgraded from B to C on 2026-08-06, though price history is available for only 3.0 years. Short-term performance shows a +1.65% daily gain and a +4.49% weekly increase following the monthly dip.

With a beta of 2.08, the fund moves more than twice as much as the broader market, contributing to its very high annualized volatility of 39.09%. This elevated risk profile is accompanied by a maximum drawdown of -31.83%, highlighting significant potential for loss. Despite the high volatility, the Sharpe ratio of 1.53 suggests that the returns generated have been efficient relative to the risk taken. Liquidity is moderate, with an average daily volume of 346,714 shares and a bid-ask spread of 5.25%.

WTAI Liquidity, Domicile & Tax Treatment

Liquidity: Quoted bid/ask spread is 5.25% and average daily volume is 347K/day. Tighter spreads and higher volume mean lower round-trip trading costs; this is a live-market snapshot and can widen during volatile sessions. AUM of $715M provides ample scale, supporting tight spreads and issuer commitment to keep the fund open.

Domicile & tax treatment: WTAI is a US-domiciled, SEC-registered ('40 Act) exchange-traded fund. Dividends and capital gains distributions are reported to US investors on Form 1099-DIV, and the fund is not subject to the PFIC reporting or UCITS-specific rules that apply to Irish- or Luxembourg-domiciled funds. Non-US investors should note that US-domiciled ETFs are generally subject to 30% US withholding tax on dividends (unless reduced by treaty) and to US estate tax exposure on the position — Irish-domiciled UCITS ETFs tracking the same index often avoid both, which is why non-US residents frequently prefer the UCITS equivalent where one exists. This is general information, not tax advice — consult a tax professional for your situation.
