Industrials is the largest sector in Robo Global Robotics and Automation Index ETF (ROBO) at 45.2%, ahead of Technology at 42.6% and Healthcare at 5.9%. With more than a third in one sector, ROBO moves with that sector more than a broadly spread fund would. ROBO is a Technology fund from Robo Global, launched on October 22, 2013.
Owning ROBO carries an annual expense ratio of 0.95%, which works out to $95.00 each year on a $10,000 position. The fund's net assets total $2.0B. Its distribution yield stands at 0.36%, and portfolio turnover is 35%.

CleaRank Financial AI analysis of ROBO
The score, the reasoning behind it, and what could move the price next.
ROBO is trending down. The fund is priced at $75.52, which leaves it 5.20% below its 50-day average of $79.66 and 4.39% below its 200-day average of $78.99. The 50-day average sits 0.85% above the 200-day average, so the longer average has not yet adjusted to the softer price. Over the past year, the price is 20.26% above the 52-week low of $62.80 and 16.56% below the high of $90.51.
A recent pullback sits inside a stronger longer record: the price fell 6.83% over the past month, fell 3.89% over the past three months and rose 8.72% over the past year. The 14-day RSI of 38.5 is in the bearish zone, above the oversold line, and the MACD line is negative.
- The two levels nearest the price are worth tracking: the 20-day EMA at $77.95 sits above it, and the 52-week low at $62.80 sits below it.
- The 14-day RSI is 38.5, which falls in the bearish zone, and the MACD line is negative. Readings above 70 or below 30 signal stretched momentum.
- Costs compound: at 0.95% a year, ROBO charges $95.00 on every $10,000 invested.
The trend is down because ROBO sits beneath both its 50-day ($79.66) and its 200-day ($78.99) averages. A move back above the 200-day would be the first sign of repair. Above the current price, the closest level is the 20-day EMA at $77.95.
The next level below the price is the 52-week low of $62.80. With the RSI in the bearish zone, momentum still leans toward further declines.

ROBO 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 ROBO, from its own past volatility. The shaded area holds 80% of them.
CleaRank's 4-year Monte Carlo simulation, based on 10 years of price history, projects that a $10,000 investment in ROBO today could grow to about $13,079 by 2030 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $22,152 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $7,722. The simulation models price only; at today's 0.36% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.
ROBO 2030 Scenarios (Monte Carlo)
The same simulation in prices, year by year.
CleaRank's simulation projects a price near $98.77 for ROBO by 2030 in the base case, from $75.52 today (1.3x over 4 years). The 10th-percentile path ends near $58.32. These are outcomes of a Monte Carlo simulation run on ROBO'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 | $62.06 | $80.76 | $105 | |
| 2028 | $59.50 | $86.37 | $125 | |
| 2029 | $58.52 | $92.36 | $146 | |
