What the numbers say
CleaRank Financial AI's reading of QTUM's holdings, performance and risks.
Defiance Quantum ETF (QTUM) is led by Technology, which makes up 80.7% of the fund, followed by Industrials at 9.2% and Communication Services at 6.5%. With more than half in one sector, QTUM moves with that sector more than a broadly spread fund would. QTUM is a Technology fund from Defiance ETFs LLC, launched on September 4, 2018.
Costs come to 0.40% a year, or $40.00 on a $10,000 holding. The fund has $5.6B in net assets. Its distribution yield is 0.93%, and portfolio turnover is 42%.
On a typical day the price of QTUM shifts by 1.97%, the 30-day standard deviation of its daily returns. Concentration matters here: Technology makes up 80.7% of the fund, so a setback in that sector would weigh on the whole. The downtrend is itself a risk for as long as the price stays under both moving averages. The price is 21.28% below its 52-week high of $170.00.

CleaRank Financial AI analysis of QTUM
The score, the reasoning behind it, and what could move the price next.
QTUM closed at $133.83 and sits beneath both of its main moving averages. It is 8.93% below the 50-day average of $146.95 and 2.89% below the 200-day average of $137.82. The 50-day average is 6.63% above the 200-day average, and that spread would shrink if the price keeps trading under the shorter average. Across its 52-week range, running from $98.21 up to $170.00, the price stands at 50%.
A recent pullback sits inside a stronger longer record: the price fell 11.73% over the past month, fell 5.25% over the past three months and rose 17.75% over the past year. On momentum, the 14-day RSI reads 35.9, in the bearish zone, above the oversold line, with the MACD line negative. The price fell 5.18% in the last session on volume 113.3% above its average.
- Keep an eye on the two closest levels: the 200-day SMA at $137.82 sits above the price, while the 52-week low at $98.21 sits below it.
- The 14-day RSI reads 35.9, in the bearish zone, with the MACD line negative; readings above 70 or below 30 mark stretched momentum.
- Fees add up over time. At 0.40% a year, QTUM takes $40.00 for every $10,000 invested.
The downtrend stays in place while QTUM is below both its 50-day average at $146.95 and its 200-day average at $137.82; a close back above the 200-day would be the first step of a repair. The 200-day SMA at $137.82 is the first hurdle overhead.
The 52-week low at $98.21 is the next level below. The RSI sits in the bearish band, which leans against a quick recovery.

QTUM price prediction 2030
Thousands of simulated paths from the price history. A range of outcomes, not a forecast.
Monte Carlo projection
Thousands of simulated paths for $10,000 in QTUM, from its own past volatility. The shaded area holds 80% of them.
CleaRank's 4-year Monte Carlo simulation, based on 8 years of price history, projects that a $10,000 investment in QTUM today could grow to about $15,057 by 2030 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $30,710 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $7,382. The simulation models price only; at today's 0.93% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.
QTUM 2030 Scenarios (Monte Carlo)
The same simulation in prices, year by year.
CleaRank's simulation projects a price near $202 for QTUM by 2030 in the base case, from $134 today (1.5x over 4 years). The 10th-percentile path ends near $98.80. These are outcomes of a Monte Carlo simulation run on QTUM's historical return distribution, not price targets, and they assume no dividends are reinvested.
| Year | 10th percentile | Base case | 90th percentile | range base today |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 | $104 | $148 | $212 | |
| 2028 | $99.21 | $164 | $272 | |
| 2029 | $98.13 | $182 | $337 | |
| 2030 | $98.80 | $202 | $411 |
