SHOC: Concentrated Bet On The Semiconductor Supercycle
The Strive US Semiconductor ETF (SHOC) provides concentrated exposure to leading U.S. semiconductor companies, with its top 10 holdings representing 75% of assets. It has delivered a 203% three-year price return, driven by strong demand from AI, rising memory prices, and hyperscaler capital spending. The ETF is seen as undervalued, trading at a 12% discount, though it carries risks due to high concentration and geopolitical uncertainties in the supply chain.
