Should You Actually Buy the SMH ETF?

The VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH) is up over 100% in the past year. It's the cheapest fund I've reviewed on this channel. And it doesn't have the words "Artificial Intelligence" anywhere in its name — yet it holds NVIDIA, TSMC, Broadcom, and ASML as its top positions. In this video I put SMH through my 5-category grading system — Returns, Risk, Holdings Quality, Diversification, and Potential — and give it an honest score so you know exactly what you're getting before you invest.
