SMH

SMH reports 26 positions, but the weights make it behave like about 13.9 equally weighted ones. Computed by this site from the fund's SEC Form N-PORT filing — see what this measure does not tell you and the full table.

The same filing says what kind of price those positions carry: 100% of SMH is held at a quoted market price, across 4 issuer countries . Comparisons across every fund are in the valuation table, and what a low share does and does not mean is worth reading before drawing a conclusion from it.

Between 2019-09-30 and 2026-06-30, SMH went from behaving like 16.5 equally weighted positions to 13.9 — 16% fewer, while its top ten went from 64.2% to 70.24% of net assets. Read across the funds on the concentration-over-time table.
