- Even With SOXX and DRAM Down Between 24% and 42% From Their Highs, I'd Still Rather Buy This Vanguard ETF for Semiconductor Stock Exposure
The Roundhill Memory ETF (DRAM) has amassed $26 billion in net assets since launching in April and is up 69.4% year to date, even though it is 41.7% below its high. The iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) and Vanguard Information Technology ETF (VGT) are up 45.7% and 33.9% year to date, respectively. As of Oct. 19, DRAM's largest holdings were Micron (28.4%), Samsung Electronics (25.7%) and SK Hynix (20.6%), with a 0.65% expense ratio. The author argues that VGT is the better long-term choice, citing its 43.6% semiconductor weighting, top holdings Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft and Micron, and 314 other holdings, while noting that it invests only in U.S. companies and can be paired with individual stocks.
- Memory stocks slide into another bear market as chip losses near $2.5 trillion: Chart of the Day
The Roundhill Memory ETF (DRAM) entered another bear market this week, falling more than 20% from its September rebound high and sitting roughly 22% below that peak. It is nearly 40% below June's record close, after plunging nearly 45% from June to late July and then rallying over 40% into September. Samsung Electronics, Micron, SK Hynix and Sandisk have shed more than $700 billion in combined market value since October 6, and a broader Yahoo Finance basket of 61 semiconductor and storage stocks has lost nearly $2.5 trillion. The iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) posted its eighth straight decline, its longest losing streak since October 2008, even as TSMC reported another record quarterly profit and AI demand stays strong. Investors are questioning how much of the boom will reach shareholders, and DRAM's next major test is its late-July lows near $45, about 9% below Thursday's close.
- Why Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X ETF Crashed Today
The Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X Shares ETF (SOXL) fell about 7.36% on the day and more than 26% this week, as investors worried about ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT), a Chinese DRAM maker that recently went public, after it reported progress in “4F square” technology to boost DRAM storage density. Micron fell 13.5% and Sandisk fell 18% this week on fears CXMT could take market share from Western memory makers. Because Micron is SOXL's largest holding at 8.6% and the ETF owns no Sandisk, Micron's smaller decline drove SOXL's drop. The article notes this also means SOXL's gains will be smaller when it rebounds, due to its 3x leverage.
- 46 ETFs Add to Texas Instruments (TXN) on Nov. 2
AVLV led ETF activity on Monday, buying 173,554 Texas Instruments shares worth $52.4 million. In total, 46 ETFs bought TXN while 28 sold, for net buying of $146.7 million.

QQQ ($48.7 million) and SPY ($16.6 million) were the next-largest buyers. The article puts Texas Instruments' market capitalization at $285.5 billion, with a P/E of 40.55 and shares up 84.04% year to date.

- Why Bill Ackman Says He Feels Like “Markets Are Broken” Casinos
On November 3, 2026, Bill Ackman told television that he feels markets are “broken” and resemble casino-type markets with 95% leverage, a figure he presented as his own claim, while arguing the disorder is good for his firm over the long term. He criticized leveraged short-term funds and perpetual futures on individual stocks, which he said contribute to large price moves. Pershing Square's third-quarter letter, dated November 2, blamed volatility on a reduced float from indexation. Ackman is most bullish on Visa, Mastercard and Netflix, and Netflix closed at $63.42, near its $61.39 low. PS's third-quarter revenue of $56.604 million missed the $75.474 million estimate, with no performance fees.
