Traders anticipate a 10% move in NVIDIA stock post-earnings. VanEck Semiconductor ETF has a busy corporate event calendar ahead for semiconductor stocks, and I highlight fundamental and technical risks. SMH's valuation is high, with a focus on large-cap growth and a concentration in Information Technology holdings.

The semiconductor industry has been on fire over the last 10 years. The VanEck Semiconductor ETF's top holdings are Nvidia, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, and Broadcom.

Is the VanEck Semiconductor ETF Still a Millionaire Maker?

VanEck Semiconductor ETF is the largest semiconductor ETF with an AUM of over $23b. In my view, the semiconductor sector is one of the most attractive to have exposure to. However, the exposure the ETF provides represents the sector poorly. As the ETF is highly concentrated into companies that are dependent on each other in a low-risk environment, I rate SMH a Sell.

Key Stock Market ETFs Hanging Tough Amidst Volatility

The technology industry has become enamored with artificial intelligence, and opportunities in the chip space have witnessed particularly high demand. While stocks like Nvidia continue to soar, investors have alternatives that may be better suited in the long run.

Missed Out on Nvidia? This Spectacular ETF May Be a Better Buy Anyway

SMH focuses on robust generative AI trends, with its top holdings benefiting from the second wave of the cloud computing boom and undisputed AI chip market dominance. Even so, the recent profit-taking trend is unlikely to end, attributed to the ETF's YTD outperformance, the stocks' elevated P/E, and the market rotation from growth stocks. Uncertainty surrounding the US election, geopolitical events in Ukraine/ Gaza, and the macroeconomic outlook may lead to more volatility for SMH in the near term.

SMH: Is It A Buy After The Recent Semi/Gen-AI Correction

VanEck Semiconductor ETF is a high-quality semiconductor ETF that has benefited from the AI gold rush. SMH experienced downside volatility recently, attributed to intensified geopolitical risks and profit-taking. SMH offers investors broader diversification into the semiconductor industry besides benefiting from the AI surge.

SMH: Let Your AI Winners Run Further

My last writing urged you to consider a more concentrated bet on the tech sector with SMH. Now, I urge you to consider the opposite: cash out and better diversify your tech exposure with other sectors or assets. The valuation discount I saw in SMH earlier has now been replaced by an oversized valuation premium.

SMH: Time To Lock In Your Profit

Amid a rotation into value and small-cap equities, semiconductor stocks and related ETFs are dealing with some selling pressure in the early stages of the third quarter. Some of the well-known semiconductor indexes are sporting month-to-date losses in excess of 5%.
