Semiconductor stocks continue to rally and will continue to do so as long as the artificial intelligence (AI) and data center themes stay hot. So far, it appears that trend could persist for some time.

AI & Data Centers Provide Fuel for Chip Stocks Rally

Despite a 6% pullback in semiconductor stocks, the SOXS ETF has lost 6%, highlighting its ineffectiveness as a hedge due to volatility decay. SOXS ETF's reset of daily exposure leads to significant long-term losses, with a -70.9% CAGR over 10 years, making it an abysmal investment. Investors should consider put options on individual overvalued stocks or sector ETFs like SOXX for defined risk and reward, avoiding SOXS's open-ended decay.
