<h1 class="wp-block-heading">The Big 3 Are On Fire</h1>
SMH's rally is being powered by its top holdings. 
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Nvidia, which makes up 21.5% of the ETF, is up 14.5% in the past month, riding the AI server boom and record insider buzz.</li>
<li>Taiwan Semiconductor (11.4% of SMH) has surged 19.4%, buoyed by massive chip demand and strong guidance.</li>
<li>Broadcom (9.9% of SMH) isn't far behind, up 8.9%, after delivering earnings that showcased accelerating AI infrastructure revenue.</li>
</ul>
Combined, these three giants account for over 42% of SMH's assets — and they're all trending higher together.

<li>50-day SMA: $241.69</li>
<li>200-day SMA: $240.17</li>
</ul>
That's a full-stack bullish setup. The MACD (moving average convergence/divergence) reads 9.86, and RSI (relative strength index) has ticked above 70, reflecting strong buying momentum, though nearing overbought levels.
Last time this golden cross pattern formed, SMH launched into a 144%+ rally over the following year. With the sector's fundamentals aligned around AI, chips and hyperscaler demand, another big move could be on the cards.
If you missed the last semiconductor melt-up, this golden cross may be your second shot. Just be warned — RSI is signaling heat, so timing matters.

Nvidia, Taiwan Semiconductor, Broadcom Drive Chip Stocks To A Golden Cross — Will History Repeat With 145% Rally?

Personal finance expert Suze Orman says she&#8217;s confident the stock market is headed higher, despite some alarming signs in the broader economy. In her recent <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoC3d8kt6e4">video</a>, she acknowledged that things feel unstable right now, but urged her audience to stay calm and take a long-term view.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Unusual Economic Signals</h2>
&#8220;There is something going on in this economy that I really don&#8217;t like,&#8221; Orman said, citing how traditional patterns are breaking. Typically, when markets drop, investors move into bonds, causing bond prices to rise and interest rates to fall. But that hasn&#8217;t been happening. &#8220;Interest rates in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45654448/bond-market-caught-between-rate-cut-hopes-and-fed-cautionwhat-investors-can-do-now">bonds</a> went up and up and up,&#8221; she said. &#8220;That isn&#8217;t what you want to see in normal markets.&#8221;

</ul>
Another red flag: the U.S. dollar. Orman explained that during times of global uncertainty, foreign money usually flows into the dollar, strengthening it. But instead, &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/45974992/everyone-now-hates-the-dollar-is-that-the-ultimate-buy-signal">the dollar has been getting weaker</a> and weaker and weaker.&#8221;
She suggested this could mean foreign investors are losing confidence in the U.S. &#8220;Maybe it&#8217;s that foreign countries don&#8217;t quite have the faith in us anymore that they used to. We haven&#8217;t exactly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44131125/tariff-update">been nice to them</a>.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Shifting Her Own Strategy</h2>
With her own treasuries maturing, Orman said she is now choosing dividend-paying stocks instead of rolling her money back into treasuries. &#8220;Many <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-dividend-paying-stocks">dividend-paying stocks</a> right now are paying more in a dividend than the Treasury is paying in interest rates,&#8221; she said.

She emphasized the importance of dollar-cost averaging: investing smaller amounts over time. This way, if stock prices fall, investors can buy more shares. &#8220;Even if it goes down because the markets go down&#8230; [your] income is fixed in the dividend, [so] your interest rate also goes up in there,&#8221; she explained.
One example she gave was Pfizer (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>), which has been trading around $24 a share with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/45601072/pfizers-7-5-dividend-income-haven-or-house-of-cards">dividend yield of about 7%</a>. &#8220;Now, is it possible that maybe they could cut the dividend? They&#8217;re not going to get rid of the dividend, as far as I&#8217;m concerned.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Staying Invested In The Future</h2>
Orman advised investors to focus on sectors that reflect the future, particularly artificial intelligence and technology. She specifically recommended ETFs like VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>). &#8220;I want you to be investing in the future, not in the past anymore,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Artificial intelligence has absolutely changed the face of money and the face of the future.&#8221;

Despite today's economic uncertainty, Orman remains optimistic. &#8220;Believe it or not, I have total belief that these markets are going to continue up without a shadow of a doubt,&#8221; she said. Even if she turns out to be only half right, she advised investors to act accordingly: invest 50% now and the rest later if prices fall.
&#8220;I&#8217;m still a total believer in the stock market. I think it is very, very possible you could see the [<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/06/45932660/exclusive-sp-500-new-all-time-highs-again-2025">S&amp;P 500</a>] skyrocket. I am a total believer in dividend-paying stocks,&#8221; she said. And if you don't need the income now, she added, &#8220;it is essential that you are reinvesting those dividends.&#8221;

Suze Orman Believes The Stock Market Will Continue Climbing 'Without A Shadow Of A Doubt'

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?

Shares of Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) and other semiconductor giants surged on Tuesday, riding a wave of market optimism following reports of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46079549/tech-stocks-eye-record-highs-crude-drops-to-64-on-iran-israel-truce-whats-driving-markets-tuesday">ceasefire</a> agreement between Israel and Iran.
What To Know: The positive geopolitical news helped quell investor fears and fueled a broad market rally, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq-100 climbing 1.53%.
The semiconductor sector, which had faced headwinds late last week, saw a significant rebound. The VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>) jumped 3.67%, erasing recent losses.
This renewed confidence comes after a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46035836/nvidia-broadcom-marvell-and-other-chip-stocks-fall-on-unexpected-us-move">sharp downturn</a> last Friday, when reports suggested the U.S. plans to revoke waivers allowing chipmakers to ship American technology to their factories in China. That news had sent shares of major players like Nvidia and Taiwan Semiconductor tumbling.
What Else: The shadow of U.S.-China trade relations looms still large over Intel. The reports from last Friday regarding the potential cancellation of waivers for chipmakers to export American technology to China represent a direct threat to Intel&#8217;s extensive operations and revenue streams.
While the immediate market focus on Tuesday may have shifted to geopolitical optimism, this underlying issue remains a critical concern for investors.
A significant portion of Intel&#8217;s manufacturing and sales is tied to China, and any move to restrict its access to that market could have substantial long-term financial implications.
INTC Price Action: Intel shares closed higher by 6.42% to $22.55 on Tuesday. According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, Inte7 has a 52-week high of $37.16 and a 52-week low of $17.66.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy INTC Stock</h1>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share — or fractional share — of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument.
For example, in Intel&#8217;s case, it is the Information Technology sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment. Image: Shutterstock

Shares of chip stocks are trading higher amid overall market strength on Israel-Iran ceasefire hopes.

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">Semiconductor ETFs</a> were shaken on Friday after a report from The Wall Street Journal indicated that the Trump administration is likely to reimpose stricter trade restrictions on China, a step that promises to revive the U.S.-China tech skirmishes at exactly the wrong time, as the AI-driven chip rally was taking off.
The <a href="https://www.wsj.com/world/china/u-s-prepares-action-targeting-allies-chip-plants-in-china-10ab18a8">report </a>states that U.S. Commerce Department official Jeffrey Kessler warned global chipmakers such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>), Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix (OTCPK: HXSCF) that their existing waivers, which allow them to run chip factories in China with access to American-made equipment, may be revoked at any time. Although a Commerce Department spokesperson later said that chipmakers can continue to remain in China, the threat&#8217;s chilling effect was swift.
TSMC dropped as much as 2.5%, while the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (SOX) declined some 2%. NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) dropped more than 1.15%. 
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46035836/nvidia-broadcom-marvell-and-other-chip-stocks-fall-on-unexpected-us-move">Equipment companies were not spared</a>: Applied Materials (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>) lost more than 1.5%.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">ETF Fallout: SMH, SOXX, SOXQ In The Crosshairs</h1>
ETF investors weren&#8217;t immune to the bloodbath. Large chip ETFs such as the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>) and iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>) plunged, dragged down by their significant exposures to Nvidia, TSMC, ASML, and other U.S. chip equipment giants.
SMH has more than 21% in Nvidia,11.5% of its holdings in TSMC and substantial positions in both ASML and Applied Materials.
SOXX, which follows the PHLX Semiconductor Index, is also exposed to U.S.-based chipmakers which might feel the downstream effect of tighter curbs.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Looking Ahead: Winners, Losers — And Hedged Plays</h1>
The potential policy change also brings new issues for supply chain resilience and whether deglobalization themes will gain momentum. Investors can start rotating into ETFs with greater U.S.-exposure or into funds that track beneficiaries of reshoring, including:
First Trust Nasdaq Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FTXL#NASDAQ">FTXL</a>), which veers towards domestic chipmakers.
Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COWZ#BATS">COWZ</a>), now used more as a defensive equity holding that avoids semis.
SPDR S&amp;P Kensho Intelligent Structures ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SIMS#NYSE">SIMS</a>) and others with little China-exposure chip-related holdings.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Conclusion</h1>
Although the suggested curbs are not yet agreed and finalized, the reaction in the market highlights how sensitive semiconductor assets are to policy changes. For AI-fueled chip wave ETF investors, this may be a wake-up call, one where geopolitics is as powerful as earnings or the cycle of innovation.

TSMC, ASML, Nvidia Drag Down Chip ETFs Amid Trump-Era Policy Revival

Shares of Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) rose at the open Friday morning, continuing a strong week with a 12.5% gain. This week&#8217;s upward momentum is partly fueled by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45978843/amd-stock-is-up-10-this-week-whats-going-on">unconfirmed rumors</a> of a major &#8220;GPU win&#8221; with Amazon Web Services and a bullish outlook from Wall Street.
What To Know: Earlier in the week, the stock began its rapid ascent following a report from CNBC highlighting market speculation about an expanded partnership with Amazon&#8217;s cloud computing arm. 
This news was compounded by a positive assessment from Piper Sandler analyst Harsh Kumar, who reiterated an &#8220;Overweight&#8221; rating on AMD and increased the price target to $140. 
Kumar <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45955190/amd-stock-is-soaring-monday-whats-going-on">pointed</a> to AMD&#8217;s upcoming product launches and its burgeoning AI business as key drivers for future growth, underscoring the chipmaker&#8217;s robust, multi-level relationship with Amazon.

This combination of events has ignited investor optimism. A potential deal with a market leader like AWS signifies a massive future revenue stream and a significant foothold in the competitive AI and data center markets. 
Analyst upgrades often act as a strong buy signal, boosting investor confidence. This speculation on future earnings and strengthened competitive positioning against rivals is a primary catalyst for the stock&#8217;s impressive weekly performance. Amazon already holds a disclosed $84.4 million stake in AMD.
Investors can gain exposure to&nbsp;AMD by&nbsp;investing&nbsp;in the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>).

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy AMD Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Advanced Micro Devices&#8217; case, it is in the Information Technology sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment. According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, AMD has a 52-week high of $187.28 and a 52-week low of $76.48.

Texas Instruments Announces $60 Billion US Semiconductor Manufacturing Boost

Intel Corp&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) stock pushed higher Tuesday afternoon, despite a lack of company-specific news for the session. The stock appears to be higher amid general, broader <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/25/06/45750739/qqq-etf-just-saw-its-second-best-month-of-inflows-ever-heres-why">tech sector</a> enthusiasm.
What To Know: Tuesday&#8217;s rally came even as CFO David Zinsner recently revealed at a J.P. Morgan conference that initial production volumes for external customers on its upcoming 18A and 14A manufacturing technologies would be &#8220;insignificant.&#8221; 
He <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45456613/intel-cfo-says-new-chip-output-for-clients-will-be-minimal-eyes-foundry-breakeven-by-2027">projects</a> the company's foundry business, which needs billions in revenue to become viable, won't break even until 2027, a long road for a turnaround plan that has seen the chipmaker's stock plunge over 30% in the last year.

This sober outlook follows a disappointing second-quarter forecast and analyst concerns that its first-quarter beat was merely due to customers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45456613/intel-cfo-says-new-chip-output-for-clients-will-be-minimal-eyes-foundry-breakeven-by-2027">pre-buying</a> ahead of potential tariffs. The challenges, particularly in data centers where rivals AMD and Nvidia Corp gained significant market share, culminated in the 2024 ousting of former CEO Pat Gelsinger.
However, the market's focus could be elsewhere. A recent Bank of America <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst-color/25/06/45845825/ai-momentum-powers-nvidia-arm-and-chip-supply-chain-in-bofa-recap">tech conference</a> highlighted a bullish tone across computing, with analysts raising price targets on AI-leader Nvidia Corp, CPU-designer Arm Holdings and equipment makers KLA Corp and Lam Research. 
This industry-wide optimism, fueled by the dominance of the &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; and massive May inflows into tech funds like the Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 ETF, is creating a powerful updraft for all semiconductor names, allowing Intel to float higher on sector sentiment rather than its own challenging fundamentals.
Price Action: According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, Intel is trading sharply higher Tuesday afternoon, up 8.13% at a price of $22.15. The VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>) was also in positive territory, showing a gain of 1.96% at a price of $261.99.

Intel (INTC) Stock Is Up 8% Today: What's Going On?

Markets have entered a rare calm zone. After months of economic hand-wringing and geopolitical jitters, investor nerves seem to have settled. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/volatility#:~:text=Volatile%20markets%20are%20a%20part,decisions%20based%20on%20careful%20analysis.">Volatility has been</a> bleeding out of the system, quietly and relentlessly.

The CBOE Volatility Index or VIX has dropped a staggering 63% over the last nine weeks &#8211; the steepest crash in its history. That plunge comes as the S&amp;P 500 Index gently climbed over the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45831332/sp-500-hits-6000-level-following-positive-jobs-data-investor-sentiment-improves-fear-index-remains-in-greed-zone">awaited 6,000 level</a>, shrugging off recent geopolitical noise.

The VIX is now near 17, well under its long-term average of around 20 &#8211; a level that would normally raise eyebrows. That signals traders aren't building in much fear. Instead, they're letting the calm ride—not even hiccupping into early summer.

Chart created using TradingView
Think late 2017: a suppressed VIX and steady S&amp;P rally laid the groundwork for early 2018's brutal snapback. Those who dismissed growing tail risks were caught flat-footed.
We're seeing similar dynamics this time: the VIX remains subdued, but subtle signals — like flattened skew and a sticky VVIX — suggest investors are quietly hedging rather than celebrating.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Are High-Beta Arenas The Next Market Move?</h2>
Sector-wise, this serenity has pumped up high-beta arenas. Tech-centric ETFs like the Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLK#NYSE">XLK</a>) and the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>) are pacing the gains while momentum names, especially the Magnificent Seven, continue to dominate flows. XLK has gained about 11% and SMH is up about 16% over the past month alone. The Mag 7-tracking Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAGS#BATS">MAGS</a>) is up 10.75% over the last month.
Meanwhile, defensive pockets like consumer staples and utilities aren't moving enough to signal that safety trades are safe.
Recent headlines may have cooled rising tensions with China and delivered solid jobs data, offering a backdrop of optimism. Some strategists even see room for the S&amp;P to drift to <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/third-time-lucky-citi-changes-its-s-p-target-once-more-after-index-hits-6-000-bd3fac80">6,300</a> or beyond later this year. Yet complacency is a restless beast.
The real question now is whether this serene setup turns into a springboard for more upside… or an overdue reversal. Without obvious catalysts &#8211; Fed moves, unexpected inflation or global shocks &#8211; the market may stay mellow. 
But volatility has a reputation for snapping back suddenly. And when it does, high-growth and leveraged names are often the first to feel the burn.
For now, investors have a choice: ride the calm or prepare for the turbulence when it returns. Quiet markets are attractive. Just don't mistake that silence for safety.

S&P 500's Steady Climb To 6000 Just Killed The VIX – What This Volatility Crash Means For The Next Market Move

Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) once again emerged as the world&#8217;s most valuable publicly traded company, overtaking Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) on Tuesday to reach a mind-blowing $3.45 trillion market cap. That means the chipmaker&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/05/45524565/nvidias-1-trillion-comeback-shows-deepseek-no-longer-spooks-wall-street">valuation has rebounded by more than $1 trillion</a> from an 11-month low reached in early April amid heightened tariff uncertainties.
The rally in the tech giant&#8217;s stock, fueled by unrelenting demand for its high-caliber chips and data center hardware, is boosting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">ETF portfolios</a> with high exposure to it.
With artificial-intelligence (AI) infrastructure cementing its position as the foundation of modern computing, investors are piling into Nvidia-heavy ETFs, all in on the chipmaker&#8217;s ongoing dominance of the business.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AI Power Play</h2>
Despite U.S. export restrictions and mounting geopolitical complications, Nvidia&#8217;s businesses have powered ahead. The company&#8217;s first-quarter <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45657660/nvidia-q1-highlights-china-export-ban-hits-results-but-jensen-huang-says-demand-incredibly-strong">revenue jumped</a> 69% year-on-year to $44.06 billion, with the data center business contributing $39.1 billion alone, up 73% from last year.
The release of the chipmaker&#8217;s Blackwell GPUs, already being used in scale by Microsoft , Meta (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Alphabet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), and others, highlights the dominance of the company in AI acceleration. CEO Jensen Huang has <a href="https://www.halo-technologies.com/insights/nvidia-powers-ahead-strong-earnings-and-an-ai-future#:~:text=CEO%20Jensen%20Huang%3A%20%22AI%20Is%20Essential%20Infrastructure%22&amp;text=Countries%20around%20the%20world%20are,Jensen%20Huang%2C%20CEO%20of%20Nvidia.">said </a>that nations now see AI as &#8220;essential infrastructure,&#8221; positioning Nvidia in the midst of a global technological revolution.
The firm&#8217;s latest expansions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45602697/abu-dhabi-backed-g42-and-igenius-team-up-to-build-europes-most-powerful-ai-supercomputer-using-nvidia-chips-in-italy">AI factories </a>in Saudi Arabia and the U.S., a new Stargate infrastructure cluster in the UAE, and China-focused chip plans, further bolster its global ambitions.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why This Matters For ETFs</h2>
The market&#8217;s renewed optimism on Nvidia is spreading through AI and semiconductor ETFs, many of which have large allocations to the stock. Below are some of the most significant such ETFs investors are watching, and each is up more than 10% in the past month:
<figure class="wp-block-table"> 
<table class="has-fixed-layout">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>ETF Name</td>
<td>NVIDIA Allocation</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>)</td>
<td>21.48%</td>

<tr>

<td>19.37%</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</figure>
These ETFs provide diversified exposure to semiconductors but are obviously riding Nvidia&#8217;s dominance in the AI gold rush.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">For The Daring: Single-Stock Leverage Plays</h2>
Risk-loving investors can also use leveraged single-stock ETFs that provide double daily exposure to Nvidia:
T-REX 2X Long NVIDIA Daily Target ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDX#BATS">NVDX</a>), up more than 50% in the past month.
GraniteShares 2x Long NVDA Daily ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDL#NASDAQ">NVDL</a>), up more than 52% in the past month.
These tools, although risky, offer leveraged returns directly correlated with Nvidia stock movements, perfect for those bullish on sustained AI momentum.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bottom Line</h2>
Nvidia reclaiming market-cap crown is more than just a symbolic win. It&#8217;s a turning point in the evolution of the market, with AI infrastructure now at the forefront of portfolio strategies. For ETF investors, this translates to staying on top of those funds with high Nvidia exposure, not merely for what they own today, but for what the future of technology is quickly becoming.

Shares of several semiconductor companies are trading higher amid GlobalFoundries' announcement to commit $16 billion towards US chip expansion, which may be buoying investor sentiment towards the space.

GlobalFoundries Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GFS#NASDAQ">GFS</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/g45768528/globalfoundries-announces-16b-u-s-investment-to-reshore-essential-chip-manufacturing-and-accelerat" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">plans to inject $16 billion</a> into expanding its semiconductor manufacturing and packaging operations across New York and Vermont facilities.
What Happened: The company announced on Wednesday that it aims to boost domestic chipmaking. 
The funding includes $13 billion for facility expansion and $3 billion for R&amp;D. The focus is on silicon photonics, GaN power technologies, and advanced packaging.
The announcement comes after the launch of the New York Advanced Packaging and Photonics Center—the first U.S.-based facility dedicated to silicon photonics packaging.

Shares of chip stocks are trading lower amid reports indicating the Trump administration is planning wider China tech restrictions.

The Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">ETF that mirrors the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 index</a>, is charging through May like it had a triple shot of AI-fueled espresso, with two old friends to thank: Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).
With only one trading day remaining in the month, QQQ has gained almost 10%, and is set to post its strongest monthly performance since 2023. The surge has been powered by Nvidia&#8217;s solid earnings and Tesla&#8217;s resurgence.
Nvidia, QQQ&#8217;s second-largest position, got the ball rolling with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45657660/nvidia-q1-highlights-china-export-ban-hits-results-but-jensen-huang-says-demand-incredibly-strong">fiscal Q1 results that did not disappoint</a>. The chip giant reported adjusted EPS of $0.96 and revenue of $44.1 billion. The shares surged 4.5% after hours on Wednesday, pulling QQQ 0.6% higher. On Thursday, NVDA is up 4.04% and QQQ, 0.4% as of 1 p.m ET.

Although Q2 revenue guidance was a bit short of the mark at $45 billion, factoring in a potential $8 billion decline from continued U.S. export bans on its H20 chips in China, Nvidia&#8217;s data center division, the jewel of its AI crown, brought in a whopping $39.1 billion, with solid demand in evidence.
Meanwhile, Tesla has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45668119/tesla-rides-a-bullish-wave-as-byd-slashes-prices-whos-really-winning-the-ev-war">accelerated its way back into investors&#8217; favor</a>. Stock is up almost 24% for May, the strongest month since November 2024 for the EV manufacturer. QQQ, whose top 10 holdings include Tesla, is obviously riding the momentum.
The reversal comes as Elon Musk completes his time with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Investors welcomed Musk&#8217;s renewed emphasis on Tesla&#8217;s AI and full self-driving prospects, and Wedbush&#8217;s Dan Ives hailed Tesla as the &#8220;most undervalued AI play&#8221; on the market.
ETF Ecosystem: Nvidia And Tesla Everywhere
Nvidia isn&#8217;t just juicing QQQ; it&#8217;s ubiquitous. According to Etf.com, over 625 U.S.-listed ETFs own NVDA stock. Among those ETFs is the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>), which carries a substantial 21% weightage. That ETF also benefited from Nvidia&#8217;s earnings day.
Tesla&#8217;s resurgence, though less pervasive in ETF land, is proving to have a significant impact for QQQ due to its large-cap weighting and effect on the Nasdaq 100&#8217;s performance.
Bottom Line: QQQ&#8217;s High-Octane May
With AI darlings and EV titans firing on full cylinders, QQQ is racing towards a record May close. Nvidia&#8217;s earnings momentum and Tesla&#8217;s narrative reversal have made the ideal cocktail of tech optimism.

Benzinga Market Summary: Trump Tariffs Struck Down By Federal Court, NVIDIA Rises On Earnings Beat, Tesla Rises As Musk's Government Role Concludes

As Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) gets set to report earnings on Wednesday, ETF investors are looking for more than just numbers, they are looking for big, bold, silicon-fueled signs. And nothing shouts &#8220;next catalyst&#8221; louder than Oracle Corp&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NASDAQ">ORCL</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45599854/oracle-to-spend-40-billion-on-nvidia-gb200-chips-for-openais-texas-data-center-report">$40 billion chip binge for its Texas-based OpenAI data center</a>.
The acquisition? Nvidia&#8217;s compute-dense Blackwell GPUs, which are aimed at powering the next wave of generative AI. The risk? Potentially huge for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">chip-loaded ETFs</a>.

More Than Just Hype
Oracle&#8217;s giant order isn&#8217;t a shiny headline moment; it&#8217;s a warning sign that hyperscalers are going all-in on AI infrastructure, and Nvidia remains the only true arms dealer in this emerging digital arms race.
The acquisition may:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Solidify Nvidia&#8217;s status as the default provider of enterprise AI.</li>
<li>Encourage similar purchases by cloud competitors Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), and Alphabet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>).</li>
<li>Cause a new rotation of capital into <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors">semiconductor and AI ETFs</a>.</li>
</ul>
ETF Exposure: Who&#8217;s Most At Risk, Or Reward?
Oracle&#8217;s $40 billion play set a fire under Nvidia, and these ETFs are leading the charge for the resulting heat:
VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>): Nvidia is its flagship, accounting for a ~21% weighting. A post-earnings rally ignited by the Oracle deal has the potential to rocket SMH into the stratosphere.
iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>): More diversified than SMH, yet Nvidia-dominant (~8–10%). Good upside if Nvidia&#8217;s earnings show the Oracle contract to its full extent.
Global X Artificial Intelligence &amp; Technology ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIQ#NASDAQ">AIQ</a>): Not technically semiconductors, but strongly AI-focused. The Oracle-Nvidia-OpenAI triangle is right in its thematic sweet spot.
Roundhill Generative AI &amp; Technology ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHAT#NYSE">CHAT</a>): One of the more recent entrants to the market, purely dedicated to generative AI. Nvidia&#8217;s leadership in model training infrastructure makes CHAT happy, as the chip giant holds the top position in this fund&#8217;s portfolio.

Here&#8217;s What Charts Show Ahead Of Q1 Results</a>
ETF Traders Are Watching Nvidia&#8217;s Guidance Like Hawks
The deal alone might not appear in full in Q1 figures, but traders are focused on Q2 and full-year guidance. If Nvidia is guiding for high revenue growth correlated to enterprise AI demand, it would provoke:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>A turn back into semiconductors, particularly following recent margin concerns.</li>
<li>Thematic ETF flows, as fund managers pursue AI stories with worldwide tailwinds.</li>
<li>Risk repricing, with the Middle East, Oracle, and cloud providers now positioned as Nvidia&#8217;s growth drivers, instead of China.</li>
</ul>
The Catalyst May Already Be Here
For ETF observers, Nvidia&#8217;s report may be less about the last quarter and more about the Blackwell-driven future. The Oracle deal is huge, but if it is just the beginning, ETF traders may be onto a sector re-rating.
Because when a single tech giant spends $40 billion on chips, the ripple effect does not end at one stock, it resonates across an entire ecosystem of ETFs.

Nvidia's $40 Billion Oracle Win May Trigger A Chip-ETF Rally

As Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) prepares to report earnings on Wednesday, investors are not simply waiting for numbers; they&#8217;re listening for a seismic shift in chip geopolitics. With China sales squeezed by a regulatory vise and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45602111/600b-ai-opportunity-nvidias-18000-chip-deal-with-saudi-arabias-humain-puts-middle-east-front-of-the-line-says-wedbushs-dan-ives">Middle East stepping up as an unlikely new purchaser of AI brawn</a>, the question hangs: Will Nvidia&#8217;s transformation remake the semiconductor map and the ETFs that follow it?
Welcome to the era of ETF-lation, where macro headwinds and AI ambitions cross paths to challenge the durability of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">chip-laden ETFs</a>.
From Sanctions To Sand Dunes: Nvidia&#8217;s AI Detour
Following a $5.5 billion blow from U.S. export curbs on its H20 chips to China, Nvidia is making lemonade from silicon. Recent transactions in the Middle East, such as the sale of 18,000 Blackwell chips to Saudi Arabia&#8217;s Humain and a multi-country collaboration with the UAE to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45602697/abu-dhabi-backed-g42-and-igenius-team-up-to-build-europes-most-powerful-ai-supercomputer-using-nvidia-chips-in-italy">establish an AI campus</a>, are turning out to be the company&#8217;s new money-making frontier.
These transactions won&#8217;t entirely recoup the estimated $15 billion in FY26 lost sales associated with the ban, but they provide a compelling second-quarter narrative, particularly as President Trump&#8217;s latest Middle Eastern dealstorm puts U.S. tech back on regional center stage.

ETF Exposure: Who Has the Most Skin In The Chip Game?
For investors in ETFs, Nvidia&#8217;s shift has ripple effects. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors">Semiconductors are notoriously cyclical</a>, but AI is a different game. Here&#8217;s how the most chip-dense funds:
VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>): Nvidia carries the heaviest weight (~21%), so this fund is the most sensitive to tomorrow&#8217;s earnings pyrotechnics whether good or bad.
iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>): As a leading holding (around 8-10%), Nvidia puts SOXX on more diversified exposure of old-line chipmakers such as Intel (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) and Broadcom (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>).
Global X Artificial Intelligence &amp; Technology ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIQ#NASDAQ">AIQ</a>): Less silicon than AI, but still bouncing off the coattails of Nvidia. Middle East alliances would add fuel to AIQ&#8217;s thematic growth story.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/05/45616366/nvidias-q1-earnings-loom-while-amds-edge-ai-bet-could-change-the-narrative">Nvidia&#8217;s Q1 Earnings Loom, While AMD&#8217;s Edge AI Bet Could Change The Narrative</a>
How A Strong Q2 Outlook Could Rewire Chip ETFs
The newly signed Saudi Arabian deals, especially the sale of 18,000 Blackwell chips to Humain, may provide a strong upside shock to Nvidia&#8217;s second-quarter outlook. If Nvidia&#8217;s management hints that these Middle Eastern deals are driving good revenue growth, it will do more than just support the stock price.
SMH and SOXX might experience a new wave of investor capital as excitement over Nvidia&#8217;s refreshed growth pipeline revives semiconductor exposure confidence. A robust Q2 outlook might lead portfolio managers to add weighting to Nvidia or position more aggressively in chipmakers with exposure to increasing AI infrastructure in the Gulf.
AI-themed ETFs such as AIQ and ROBO Global Robotics and Automation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROBO#NYSE">ROBO</a>) may catch the narrative wave and receive flows from investors looking to support the &#8216;new AI frontier&#8217; beyond China. This would broaden their theme appeal among global AI growth hunters.
A surprise positive would also mute fears over the $5.5 billion write-off and margin squeeze, cooling the downside pressures that have weighed on chip ETFs in the last few weeks.
Risk, Meet Rotation
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45612246/nvidia-to-be-hit-by-china-chip-export-curbs-or-deliver-q2-guidance-surprise-after-middle-east-dealmaking-heres-what-charts-show-ahead-of-q1-results">Bank of America cautioned a gross margin decline</a>, from 71% to 58%, as a result of the $5.5 billion inventory write-down. Pro forma EPS could miss consensus by up to 16%, declining to $0.74. Nonetheless, the company has a &#8220;Buy&#8221; rating with a $160 price target, depending on long-term AI tailwinds.
This presents a strategic dilemma to ETF investors: double down on semiconductors or swing into more diversified technology and AI funds?
Consider these two strategic plays:
Hold the line on concentrated exposure (SMH/SOXX) if you&#8217;re confident in Middle East-led growth.
Swing into AI-themed ETFs like ROBO, THNQ, or even WTAI for a more diversified innovation play with less Nvidia sensitivity.
Bottom Line: A Fork In The AI Road
As tensions between the U.S. and China heighten and AI infrastructure explodes elsewhere, ETF managers might have to reevaluate country-specific threats and demand pipelines.
If Nvidia reports high guidance tomorrow, chip-heavy funds can take off. If it doesn&#8217;t, investors might begin to look around for who&#8217;s next in the AI battle and which ETFs are best poised to profit.
Either way, the silicon tale is no longer an American or a Chinese one; it&#8217;s global, geopolitical, and coming directly into your ETF screen.

Nvidia's Q1 Earnings May Mark A Turning Point For Chip ETFs

Shares of NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) surged Tuesday following President Donald Trump's decision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45627060/wall-street-rockets-as-bond-yields-drop-tesla-hits-3-month-highs-whats-driving-markets-tuesday">postpone</a> sweeping tariffs on European Union imports. The move sparked a sharp rebound in U.S. markets, with the Nasdaq jumping nearly 2.4% and tech stocks leading the rally.
What To Know: President Donald Trump had threatened to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45585283/trump-tariff-threat-hits-europe-stocks-sink-as-50-duties-loom">impose 50% tariffs</a> on EU goods beginning June 1, but delayed the action to July 9, signaling openness to further negotiations. The reprieve alleviated investor fears of escalating trade tensions, driving gains across major indexes and particularly benefiting the technology sector.

Nvidia rose 2.9% on the news, while AMD also gained 3.8%, buoyed by improved market sentiment and sector momentum. Investors are optimistic ahead of Nvidia's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/05/45616366/nvidias-q1-earnings-loom-while-amds-edge-ai-bet-could-change-the-narrative">first-quarter earnings</a> report due Wednesday, which is expected to show earnings per share of $0.88 and revenue topping $43 billion.
The tariff delay comes at a critical time, as markets recently struggled with economic headwinds, including a U.S. credit rating downgrade and rising Treasury yields. With geopolitical tensions easing, at least temporarily, and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45608914/nvidia-earnings-on-deck-can-ai-darling-beat-the-streets-high-bar-amid-china-headwin">key earnings</a> on deck, tech stocks like Nvidia and AMD were poised to benefit Tuesday from renewed investor confidence.
Investors can gain exposure to&nbsp;AMD and NVDA by&nbsp;investing&nbsp;in the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>).
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy NVDA, AMD Stock</h1>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share — or fractional share — of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument.
For example, in these two stock cases, it is in the Information Technology sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, AMD has a 52-week high of $187.28 and a 52-week low of $76.48; Nvidia has a 52-week high of $153.13 and a 52-week low of $86.63, as of publication on Tuesday.

NVIDIA, AMD Shares Climb As Tariff Delay Boosts Tech Sector: What's Going On?

Shares of chip stocks are trading higher, possibly amid overall market strength after President Trump delayed 50% EU tariffs to July. Additionally, the sector may be up in anticipation of NVIDIA's upcoming Q1 report.
