Who borrows SMH's shares

2026-06-30

The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-06-30, $88m was out to 3 borrowers, 0.11% of net assets. The largest, BNP PARIBAS PRIME BROKERAGE INTERNATIONAL LIMITED, held 97% of it.

Wedbush Securities Inc. $52,423 0.1%

The filing reports no cash collateral position against this loan. Collateral taken in a form the fund does not hold as a position does not appear in N-PORT, so this is silence rather than absence.

Since the previous filing

2026-03-31 → 2026-06-30

25 positions became 25: 0 added (0.0% of the fund at the later date), 0 dropped (0.0% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 9.9%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of SMH compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.
