Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) just did the unimaginable: it leaped over Microsoft to become the most valuable company in the world on Thursday, with a market capitalization crossing $3.7 trillion. But as the chipmaker solidifies its position as the foundation of the AI era, one segment of Wall Street is somewhat lagging behind — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">semiconductor ETFs</a>.
Despite Nvidia&#8217;s historical rise, some of the largest ETFs that follow the semiconductor space are still predominantly weighted toward legacy chipmakers —companies that dominated the PC and mobile era, but whose trajectories are now threatened by the AI revolution.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Not All Chip ETFs Are Built For The AI Race</h2>
Take a look at the two heavyweights: the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>) and the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>). Both have seen strong returns, thanks in large part to Nvidia's outperformance, but scratch beneath the surface, and you'll notice they still allocate sizable weight to companies like Intel (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>), Texas Instruments (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>), and Qualcomm (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>), which haven't benefited nearly as much from the AI arms race.
SMH, for example, has Nvidia at about 20.5%, and Intel continues to hold on to a healthy 3.7% of the portfolio in spite of its failure to gain ground in the GPU segment. SOXX&#8217;s own positioning is similarly slanted — Nvidia is a top holding, but legacy companies comprise a bigger-than-anticipated portion of the roster.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AI Winners Vs. Legacy Players</h2>
Here&#8217;s the irony: Nvidia&#8217;s success is being fueled to a great extent by hyperscalers such as Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Alphabet — firms which are building out AI infrastructure at a very fast clip. That demand, in turn, is fueling interest in AI-focused semiconductors — GPUs, networking processors, model-training memory, optimized memory, and even the tailor-made AI chips manufactured by companies such as Broadcom and Marvell Technology.
But most broad semiconductor ETFs still portray an outdated vision of the industry, one still led by general-purpose computing and consumer hardware cycles, rather than AI computing.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The ETF Innovators Catching On</h2>
There are some ETFs that have turned. The Invesco PHLX Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXQ#NASDAQ">SOXQ</a>) and the SPDR S&amp;P Semiconductor ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XSD#NYSE">XSD</a>) do it differently. XSD is equal-weighted, reducing Nvidia&#8217;s weighting but offering a more equalized reflection of the sector, including newer or niche companies such as Ambarella (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMBA#NASDAQ">AMBA</a>) and Advanced Micro Devices&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), which are also being boosted by AI-related trends.
And then there are thematic ETFs such as the Roundhill Generative AI ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHAT#NYSE">CHAT</a>), not semiconductor pure plays, but more representative of next-generation AI infrastructure, including semis that actually underpin the boom.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Concentration Conundrum</h2>
Nvidia&#8217;s ascent has also brought a novel challenge: the risk of concentration. SMH and SOXX each have more than one-fifth of their portfolios invested in a single stock, a fantastic ride on the way up, but potentially perilous if attitudes reverse.
That risk is aggravated by underperformance from other holdings. Intel, for example, has fallen about 27% in the past year. So while the front-page ETF returns appear solid, they&#8217;re disproportionately reliant on a single ticker.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Time For A Chip ETF Makeover?</h2>
Investors betting on the future of semiconductors might need to rethink their exposure. In an AI-dominated world, chipmakers are no longer a monolith, and ETFs that treat them as such may underdeliver.
As Nvidia continues to achieve milestones and propel the AI ecosystem forward, the question for ETF issuers is simple: Will they adapt for the AI age, or continue playing the greatest hits of the previous chip cycle?

Nvidia Just Became The World's Most Valuable Stock; Is It Time For A Semiconductor ETF Rethink?

For investors who prefer their tech plays with a dash of adrenaline, Direxion just served up four new ways to catch the waves. The ETF provider launched four new single-stock leveraged and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">inverse funds</a> on Wednesday, focused on Cisco Systems (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>) and Qualcomm (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>). But these are no ordinary ETFs, they&#8217;re designed for quick trades, quick brains, and even quicker appetites for risk.

Here&#8217;s the new group:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Direxion Daily CSCO Bull 2X ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCL#NASDAQ">CSCL</a>): Positive 200% bet on Cisco&#8217;s daily price performance.</li>
<li>Direxion Daily CSCO Bear 1X ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCS#NASDAQ">CSCS</a>): Bearish 100% daily exposure in Cisco.</li>
<li>Direxion Daily QCOM Bull 2X ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCMU#NASDAQ">QCMU</a>): 2x daily bullish bet on Qualcomm.</li>
<li>Direxion Daily QCOM Bear 1X ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCMD#NASDAQ">QCMD</a>): 1x daily bearish exposure to Qualcomm.</li>
</ul>
Each of the ETFs carries an expense ratio of 0.97%.
With these, investors can go long or short on two giants of the digital infrastructure space, enterprises thriving on growth in AI, 5G, and cloud networking.
Douglas Yones, CEO of Direxion, said that these ETFs will &#8220;empower traders to capitalize on short-term movements in these pivotal technology stocks, reflecting our commitment to providing targeted tools for dynamic market engagement.&#8221; 
But a word of caution: single-stock leveraged ETFs are the fiscal version of a high-speed chase. There&#8217;s no diversification buffer, and the daily reset assures compounding will work for or against you.
Even within leveraged products, such ETFs are niche instruments for savvy market players who keep positions under close scrutiny and appreciate the mathematics (and mayhem) of volatility.

<h2>Delving into Qualcomm's Background</h2>
Qualcomm develops and licenses wireless technology and designs chips for smartphones. The company's key patents revolve around CDMA and OFDMA technologies, which are standards in wireless communications that are the backbone of all 3G, 4G, and 5G networks. Qualcomm's IP is licensed by virtually all wireless device makers. The firm is also the world's largest wireless chip vendor, supplying nearly every premier handset maker with leading-edge processors. Qualcomm also sells RF-front end modules into smartphones, as well as chips into automotive and Internet of Things markets.
<h3>Key Indicators: Qualcomm's Financial Health</h3>
Market Capitalization: Indicating a reduced size compared to industry averages, the company's market capitalization poses unique challenges.
Revenue Growth: Over the 3M period, Qualcomm showcased positive performance, achieving a revenue growth rate of 16.93% as of 31 March, 2025. This reflects a substantial increase in the company's top-line earnings. As compared to competitors, the company surpassed expectations with a growth rate higher than the average among peers in the Information Technology sector.
Net Margin: Qualcomm's net margin excels beyond industry benchmarks, reaching 25.61%. This signifies efficient cost management and strong financial health.
Return on Equity (ROE): Qualcomm's financial strength is reflected in its exceptional ROE, which exceeds industry averages. With a remarkable ROE of 10.3%, the company showcases efficient use of equity capital and strong financial health.
Return on Assets (ROA): Qualcomm's financial strength is reflected in its exceptional ROA, which exceeds industry averages. With a remarkable ROA of 5.07%, the company showcases efficient use of assets and strong financial health.
Debt Management: Qualcomm's debt-to-equity ratio stands notably higher than the industry average, reaching 0.53. This indicates a heavier reliance on borrowed funds, raising concerns about financial leverage.
<h2>Analyst Ratings: What Are They?</h2>
Ratings come from analysts, or specialists within banking and financial systems that report for specific stocks or defined sectors (typically once per quarter for each stock). Analysts usually derive their information from company conference calls and meetings, financial statements, and conversations with important insiders to reach their decisions.
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers. It is important to keep in mind that while stock and sector analysts are specialists, they are also human and can only forecast their beliefs to traders.

China announced Tuesday that Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) will attend its flagship China International Supply Chain Expo for the first time in July, marking a significant development as U.S.-China tech tensions reach new heights over semiconductor trade restrictions.
What Happened: Yu Jianlong, deputy director of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, called the participation of over 100 U.S. and European exhibitors a &#8220;vote of confidence&#8221; in China&#8217;s supply chain amid a &#8220;complex and volatile&#8221; global trade landscape, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/economy/china-economy/article/3314715/nvidia-hands-china-symbolic-victory-attendance-beijing-expo?module=perpetual_scroll_0&amp;pgtype=article">reported</a> the South China Morning Post. 
The artificial intelligence chipmaker&#8217;s Beijing appearance comes despite escalating export controls that cost Nvidia $2.5 billion in first-quarter revenue. CEO Jensen Huang recently said that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45918580/nvidia-drops-china-from-guidance-after-2-5-billion-q1-revenue-hit-ceo-jensen-huang-says-hes-not-">company no longer includes China in revenue forecasts</a>, stating, &#8220;I&#8217;m not counting on it, but if it happens, then it will be a great bonus.&#8221;

Nvidia To Appear At China's Top Supply Chain Expo Despite Escalating US-China Chip War: Beijing Calls Participation 'A Vote Of Confidence'

Chinese automakers are accelerating plans to eliminate foreign semiconductors from their vehicles by 2027, with at least two brands preparing mass production of cars using 100% domestic chips by 2026.
What Happened: Major Chinese automakers, including SAIC Motor, BYD (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDF#OTC">BYDDF</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>), Geely Automobile Holdings (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GELYF#OTC">GELYF</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GELYY#OTC">GELYY</a>), Great Wall Motor Co (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GWLLY#OTC">GWLLY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GWLLF#OTC">GWLLF</a>), Li Auto (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LI#NASDAQ">LI</a>) and Changan are developing models with entirely homemade semiconductors, <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Technology/China-s-automakers-aim-for-cars-with-100-domestic-chips-from-2026">reported</a> Nikkei Asia, citing sources. 
China&#8217;s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is shepherding the initiative, regularly requiring self-assessments of domestic chip adoption rates.
The push comes as Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45918580/nvidia-drops-china-from-guidance-after-2-5-billion-q1-revenue-hit-ceo-jensen-huang-says-hes-not-">announced it will exclude China from future revenue</a> guidance after U.S. export controls cost the chipmaker $2.5 billion in first-quarter revenue. CEO Jensen Huang told CNN the company won&#8217;t count on China sales, saying, &#8220;if it happens, then it will be a great bonus.&#8221;
Automakers mentioned in the report did not immediately respond to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.

Why It Matters: The 2027 target represents a dramatic acceleration from Beijing&#8217;s previous goal of 25% domestic chip usage this year. While not mandatory, the framework incentivizes companies to demonstrate progress toward technological self-reliance.
Chinese electric vehicle makers currently rely heavily on foreign chips, particularly Nvidia&#8217;s AI processors for autonomous driving and Qualcomm Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) solutions for smart cockpits. Progressive U.S. restrictions have raised concerns about component access.
GAC Group is collaborating with domestic contract manufacturers Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp. and CanSemi Technology to review supply chains and verify local alternatives, according to the report.

Qualcomm Taps Vietnam For Next-Gen AI Push, Joining Apple And Nvidia In Supply Chain Shakeup

Technology giant Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) aims to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45127498/qualcomm-plans-22-billion-in-non-handset-revenue-by-2029-with-ai-as-its-trojan-horse" target="_blank" rel="noopener">diversify its handset revenue</a> in the future, and smart glasses could be one area of growth.
What Happened: Qualcomm demonstrated on-glass Gen AI without a phone or the cloud at the Augmented World Expo this week.
The live demonstration from Qualcomm Head of XR Ziad Asghar included a hypothetical scenario of leaving a phone in the car, running into the supermarket to get some items, and asking the glasses about making fettuccine alfredo.
"My chat wasn't just a simple demo, but a glimpse into how we're turning AI glasses, which have long been considered an accessory, into a standalone, comprehensive capable device," Asghar said.
The RayNeo X3 Pro smart glasses used in the demonstration are powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon technology.
Tuesday's demonstration is the world's first Gen AI model running on a pair of smart glasses without being paired with a phone or the cloud.
"Just the processor powering the glasses themselves. And this industry milestone was pulled off in front a live audience," Asghar added.
Qualcomm also announced the Snapdragon AR1+ Gen 1 processor at the Augmented World Expo. The company said the processor is 26% smaller than previous generations and brings enhanced image quality, size, power improvement and the ability to run SLMs.
"All four of these traits are critical for compact smart glasses."
Asghar said these features can help open the door "to a revolution in AI smart glasses" and run AI assistants right on the device.

Why It's Important: Asghar said Tuesday's demonstration was one of many examples of what's capable with on-device AI on smart glasses and the work being done by Qualcomm in the augmented reality and mixed reality spaces.
"I anticipate several different form factors, from standalone glasses powerful enough to run AI models themselves, to more lightweight frames linked to phones or nearby small computing ‘pucks' that can link anything from a car to a tablet. What we're doing with our portfolio is getting ready for the future."
Asghar said on-device AI capabilities for smart glasses could also be critical for sectors that need more security and privacy functions.
The demonstration and new Snapdragon processor announcement came as Qualcomm gained momentum in the smart glasses sector.
The company collaborated with Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) and Samsung in December to launch Android XR, an operating system for extended reality with AI at the core of the experience.
Qualcomm has also partnered with Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) on projects like the Meta Quest 3 and Ray-Ban Meta glasses.
"Imagine what these companies will be able to accomplish with smaller, more powerful platforms like Snapdragon AR1+ Gen 1, enabling sleeker form factors that don't compromise on the ability to run AI models."
Asghar said Qualcomm is launching a future of device combinations for its partners to provide superior experiences to customers.
"That's why I know this conversation with my smart glasses' AI assistant is such a pivotal moment – it really marked the beginning of something huge."
Asghar said Qualcomm is just beginning to unlock "the game-changing potential."
QCOM Price Action: Qualcomm stock has traded between $120.80 and $230.63 over the last year. Qualcomm stock is up 2.7% year-to-date in 2025.

Insights From Analysts:
The U.S. economy and stock market face a &#8220;confluence of challenges&#8221; in the second half of the year, noted Charles Schwab &amp; Co. Inc. in its mid-year outlook.
&#8220;Tariff-induced inflation, fiscal imbalances, and signs of labor market cooling contribute to an environment of heightened uncertainty and instability,&#8221; stated the note.
However, with stocks nearing all-time highs, &#8220;the bar is relatively high for the market in the second half of the year.&#8221;
The note also explained that there were &#8220;possibilities&#8221; for things to right with &#8220;tariff rates edging lower, the labor market stabilizing, and inflation remaining under control,&#8221; however, the firm had &#8220;low conviction&#8221; in understanding and predicting where the day-to-day news flow could head.
&#8220;For now, investor sentiment and positive earnings growth are supports, whereas stretched valuations and growth-negative tariff policy are hindrances,&#8221; it added.
The note also highlighted that &#8220;Investors should continue to embrace diversification across and within asset classes, especially given the dominance (this year) of markets outside the United States.&#8221;
Meanwhile, senior economist Jeremy Siegel said in his WisdomTree note that the investor sentiment was benefiting from signals of &#8220;progress or at least a pause&#8221; in U.S.-China trade tensions.

The $2.4 billion deal will be completed through Aqua Acquisition Sub LLC, a subsidiary of Qualcomm, and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026.
&#8220;Qualcomm&#8217;s advanced custom processors are a natural fit for data center workloads. The combined teams share the goal of building advanced technology solutions and enabling next-level connected computing performance across a wide array of high growth areas, including data center infrastructure,&#8221; said Cristiano Amon, president and CEO of Qualcomm.
The acquisition remains subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and shareholder and court sign-offs in the U.K.
QCOM Price Action: At the time of writing, Qualcomm shares were up 4.32% at $155.70, according to data from <a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;rct=j&amp;opi=89978449&amp;url=https://www.benzinga.com/pro/&amp;ved=2ahUKEwj1irjk3-SNAxXGlIkEHS5zGGoQFnoECAsQAQ&amp;usg=AOvVaw0xIsPvjIcIIsWev01-6zR2">Benzinga Pro</a>.
