SEMI Profile
The Columbia Seligman Semiconductor & Technology ETF focuses on investing primarily in the semiconductor and technology sectors. Under normal market conditions, the fund allocates at least 80% of its net assets to securities issued by companies involved in semiconductor production, semiconductor equipment, and related technology sectors. This includes companies across various sizes, from small-cap to large-cap firms, providing a broad exposure within the technology landscape.
The ETF targets a wide range of investments within the semiconductor and technology sectors, recognizing the pivotal role these industries play in driving technological advancement and innovation. Semiconductors, as critical components in modern electronics, are central to the ETF's investment strategy. This includes companies engaged in the design, manufacturing, and distribution of semiconductor products, as well as those providing essential equipment and services for semiconductor production.
In addition to semiconductors, the fund also invests in related technology companies, encompassing a variety of sub-sectors such as software, hardware, and other tech innovations. This diversified approach within the technology sector aims to capture growth opportunities driven by advancements in computing, communications, and other high-tech applications. By including both small- and mid-cap companies alongside larger firms, the ETF seeks to balance potential growth with stability.
Given its focus on a specific industry segment, the Columbia Seligman Semiconductor & Technology ETF is non-diversified, meaning it concentrates its investments within the semiconductor and technology sectors rather than spreading across a broad range of industries. This targeted strategy allows investors to gain concentrated exposure to sectors expected to benefit from technological progress and increased demand for semiconductor products. However, it also implies higher sector-specific risk, as the fund’s performance is closely tied to the dynamics of the semiconductor and technology markets.
