ETF Ranking

Best semiconductor ETFs

10 semiconductor ETFs ranked by fees, AUM, and performance, with a link to each fact sheet.

Semiconductors. Semiconductor ETFs concentrate a handful of chip manufacturers (Nvidia, TSMC, ASML, Broadcom): very strong rise over ten years, but drops of 30 to 50 % are not uncommon. Rankings exclude leveraged products and funds of less than 50 M$; performance is in the listing currency, dividends not reinvested, which favors accumulating versions.
