Roundhill Memory ETF launches in April, ranks among fastest-growing ETFs ever
DRAM•Roundhill Memory ETF (ticker DRAM) launched in April 2026 and has become one of the fastest-growing ETFs in history. It was excluded from the 2026 fastest-growing ETF lists because it wasn’t trading at the start of the year, despite its record-breaking inflows.
1. ETF Launch and Early Growth
Roundhill Memory ETF (ticker DRAM) began trading in April 2026, focusing on semiconductor memory companies. Within two months it attracted substantial inflows, positioning it among the fastest-growing ETFs on record despite its small initial asset base.
2. Exclusion Criteria for 2026 Growth Rankings
Lists of fastest-growing ETFs compare assets at the start of the year to June 8 levels, requiring funds to have been trading on January 1. Because DRAM launched in April, it was ineligible for 2026 rankings even with extraordinary percentage growth.
3. Growth Drivers and Investor Interest
Rapid inclusion in model portfolios and targeted allocations from memory-focused institutional investors drove DRAM’s early inflows. This surge underscores growing demand for semiconductor memory exposure and suggests potential inclusion in future growth lists as assets surpass eligibility thresholds.
