SOXX – iShares Semiconductor ETF

About SOXX

SOXX (iShares Semiconductor ETF) is a semiconductor ETF from iShares (BlackRock). It is not leveraged: it aims to follow its benchmark one-for-one. We don't show an expense ratio for SOXX because the figures in our sources didn't match; check the issuer's fact sheet for the current fee.

What it tracks

SOXX follows the NYSE Semiconductor Index, which covers US-listed chip designers, manufacturers and equipment makers. It is the same benchmark the leveraged SOXL and the inverse SOXS are built on, but without leverage.

What to keep in mind

SOXX gives 1× exposure to chip stocks, so its moves reflect the industry itself rather than a daily-reset multiple; it is still a concentrated and volatile sector fund.

What a sector ETF does

A sector ETF holds companies from a single part of the economy. That makes it a way to follow one industry, such as technology, energy or banks, but it also means less diversification than a broad index fund: when the sector's own drivers turn, such as oil prices, interest rates, regulation or demand cycles, the whole fund feels it. A few very large companies can carry a big share of a sector index.
