Defiance AI & Power Infrastructure ETF

$Defiance AI & Power Infrastructure ETF(AIPO.US)

Context: Following the recent market correction in AI stocks, valuation pressures have cooled off, creating an attractive long-term entry point for this ETF. I view AIPO as a critical energy infrastructure supporting the artificial intelligence boom.

My trade: I added to my position to build a long-term holding. Holding AIPO allows me to capture multi-year structural growth across power generation, grid modernization, and data center construction which is the essential physical backbone behind expanding compute demand.

Takeaway: Moving forward, I will use the DCA method to add on dips to build my position for my ETF portfolio.

$Defiance AI & Power Infrastructure ETF(AIPO.US)

Context: This ETF choice came due to strong demand for energy-focused AI supply chain plays. With the rapid expansion of AI data centers, power grid capacity and energy infrastructure have become major beneficiaries as a result.

My trade: To take advantage to invest in the energy behind AI, i opened a long position in AIPO to capture the growth in AI power demand. This thematic ETF offers diversified exposure across electrical grid equipment, data center power and energy producers like GE Vernova and Eaton.

Takeaway: Moving forward, I will continue to wait for market dips and opportunities to add and secure a better cost basis.

$Defiance AI & Power Infrastructure ETF(AIPO.US)

Context: AIPO gives exposure to companies benefiting from the growing demand for AI infrastructure and power. The ETF has been volatile, falling from above US$33 to around US$26 before recovering.

My trade: I built my position gradually, buying shares at US$29.40, US$28.40 and US$26.50 so far. I prefer scaling in rather than trying to predict the bottom. Hope to average down even more.

Takeaway: AI needs enormous amounts of power and infrastructure so the theme is attractive. But AIPO is more speculative than my wide-moat holdings, and I’ll manage the position accordingly. High valuations of most of the companies in this ETF is the main risk I think. Also pace of AI investment over the next few years may change.
