ETF Chart of the Day: Semiconductors

TXN, QCOM, AMAT, and TSM are all scheduled to release their quarterly earnings numbers between 10/21-11/14 as well, so perhaps this is a perfect time to re-examine the Semi space particularly via the SOX and SOXX given the new look and feel.

SOXL (Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X Shares, Expense Ratio 0.95%) and SOXS (Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bear 3X Shares, Expense Ratio 0.95%) should be freshly looked at as well since they track the same PHLX Semiconductor Index but on a three times daily leveraged daily basis (both bull and bear strategies) and have become reasonably popular with both traders and institutional managers.
