PHLX SOX · 30 componentes — Qué hay realmente dentro del SOX Treinta nombres agrupados por subindustria: diseño fabless, foundry, memoria, equipamiento, analógico, RF e IDM. Los nombres extranjeros llevan código de país — los semiconductores no son un sector puramente estadounidense. SMH · VanEck Semiconductor — Qué posee realmente SMH, y con qué peso SMH replica el índice MVIS US 25 — 25 nombres en total. Yahoo publica pesos en vivo para los 10 principales (~70 % del ETF); los 15 restantes aparecen con subsector pero con peso «n/d». Memoria · DRAM / NAND / HBM — El rey del ciclo — y solo uno sobrevive en el SOX La memoria es la subindustria semi de mayor amplitud. MU es el único pure-play en el SOX; Samsung y SK Hynix cotizan en KOSPI. Comprar SMH deja fuera ~60 % de la capitalización global de memoria. El auge HBM de la IA se reparte entre estos tres. SOXX · iShares Semiconductor ETF — SOXX at the wrapper layer SOXX tracks the ICE Semiconductor Sector Index (formerly PHLX SOX): 30 components, 8% single-stock cap, rebalanced quarterly. This panel deliberately stays in the package layer — AUM, expense ratio, top-10 concentration ladder, country and sub-sector breakdowns. The 30-name constituent map already lives on the preceding 'Inside the Index' panel and isn't repeated here. SOXX vs SMH · metadata, overlap, ten-year return — SOXX and SMH — same label, different weighting paths Both are 'semiconductor ETFs' but the curves have diverged. SMH carries 25 names with a 20% single-stock cap (TSM and NVDA sit at the very top of the ladder); SOXX carries 30 names with an 8% cap and is materially more balanced. 22 names sit in both ETFs; SOXX adds 8 smaller / specialty names, SMH adds 3 foreign names (ASE, STM, UMC) that SOXX doesn't carry. Over ten years SMH compounds to ~24×, SOXX to ~20× — the 2023-2024 AI rally fed the concentrated top of SMH's ladder more than SOXX's flatter cap.
