NVIDIA, once the dominant AI chip stock, has seen its 2026 gains outpaced by the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH), which includes a broader range of chipmakers like Taiwan Semiconductor, Micron, AMD, and Intel. While NVIDIA's data center revenue and networking segments grow rapidly, regulatory risks and zero shipments to China highlight concentration risks. SMH offers diversified exposure across the semiconductor supply chain, capturing growth in memory, foundry, and custom ASICs, making it a compelling alternative or complement to holding NVIDIA alone. Investors should weigh the benefits of diversification against tax implications when considering a partial swap from NVIDIA to SMH.
