Eighty-three holdings in one fund. The two at the top are more than forty percent of it.
I bought $EWYB this morning — 0.083 at 180.33. Most of the bStocks list under TradFi is single companies, and I wanted a fund instead. There are a few, and I picked the one that sounded broadest: not a sector, not an index of tech names, but a whole country. Eighty-three Korean companies looked like the obvious way to stop betting on one story at a time.
Then I opened the issuer's holdings page. Samsung Electronics 22.51%, SK hynix 19.57%. Together 42.08%. The third position, SK Square, is 3.26%.
So of the fifteen dollars I put in, about six sit in two memory makers. The other eighty-one companies divide the rest between them, and the largest of those eighty-one gets about fifty cents.
At 14:14 today my fund is up 4.50%, $MUB 7.49%, $SNDKB 21.12% — same screen, same minute. One afternoon proves nothing on its own, but it doesn't contradict the holdings page either.
Nothing here is mislabelled. The ticker says South Korea, the fund tracks South Korea, and this is what a market-cap-weighted country index looks like when two companies dominate that market.
But I wasn't trying to escape memory chips specifically. I was trying to escape holding one company at a time. A fund seemed like the answer to that, and this one puts more weight into its top two names than I would have put into any single ticker on my own. It just isn't the position I thought I was taking, and the holdings page would have told me that in thirty seconds — before I clicked, not after.

@BinanceCIS Do you know what's inside the fund you're holding?
