# The China Merchants CSI Dividend ETF (515080) has attracted over 1.2 billion in the past 20 days! Institutions: Increasing overseas uncertainty makes high dividend assets a "ballast."

On April 14th, the three major indices opened higher, with the China Merchants CSI Dividend ETF (515080) fluctuating near the flat position as of the time of publication. Among the constituent stocks, Western Mining rose over 4%, Shenhuo Co., Ltd. rose over 3%, and several stocks including Cangge Mining, Chongqing Rural Commercial Bank, and Anhui Construction Engineering led the gains.

In terms of capital flow, the China Merchants CSI Dividend ETF (515080) has accumulated over 400 million yuan in the last 10 trading days and over 1.2 billion yuan in the last 20 trading days. As of April 13, 2026, the fund size reached 9.035 billion yuan.

According to the latest market disclosure information, 73 listed companies among the constituents of the China Merchants CSI Dividend Index have successively disclosed their 2025 dividend plans, with a total dividend amount exceeding 91 million yuan. Among them, 16 companies have dividends exceeding 10 billion yuan, with banks accounting for 60% and oil and petrochemicals accounting for 20%.

Caixin Securities believes that the conflict between the U.S. and Iran has increased overseas uncertainties. If the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz continues, global oil reserves may become strained, thereby increasing economic downward pressure and posing performance risks in the equity market. Before the important policy window period at the end of April, the market is likely to experience fluctuations and consolidation. It is recommended to reasonably control positions and pay attention to structural opportunities.

Among them, high-dividend assets are worth noting, as these assets can provide relatively stable dividend income and possess certain anti-volatility attributes, potentially serving as part of a defensive allocation.

Data shows that the China Merchants CSI Dividend ETF (515080) tracks the benchmark dividend asset index of A-shares—the China Merchants CSI Dividend Index, which mainly selects 100 stocks with high cash dividend yields, continuous dividends for three years or more, and certain scale and liquidity from the two markets as constituent stocks, using dividend yield weighting to reflect the overall performance of high-dividend stocks in the A-share market. The China Merchants CSI Dividend ETF (515080) focuses on leading companies with high dividends, low valuations, stable cash flows, and dividend potential.
