Semiconductor ETF Comparison: SMH vs SOXX for Better Exposure

The VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH) and the iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) are two popular ETFs for exposure to the semiconductor sector. SMH is more concentrated and tilted towards the largest companies, while SOXX has caps on individual holding weights and is less concentrated. The choice of which ETF is "better" depends on whether investors want heavier exposure to the industry's biggest companies. Given the market's preference for large caps, SMH may be the better choice at the moment.
