SMH: VanEck Semiconductor ETF research

As of 09-22-2026

Entry viewSectorRole: core equity growth tilt9-month horizonMacro: TAILWIND

The regime is risk-on with Technology explicitly overweight and leading in relative strength, directly supporting semiconductor exposure. SMH's 12m return of 93% and 6m return of 55% show powerful trend strength, and it remains above its 200-day average confirming the uptrend. The 1m return of 8.39% shows renewed short-term momentum even after a 3m dip, suggesting the pullback phase may be ending.
