SMH is an ETF that tracks the major companies in the semiconductor industry. As of October 2, 2007, it was up 15.78% YTD. SMH is managed by Merrill Lynch and contains 20 stocks, which will not change unless there is a "reconstitution event".

I'm assembling this portfolio that tracks SMH as well as its component stocks. The question is - in the long run, is it better to buy SMH or one or more of the companies SMH tracks?

11.10.09 | 12:29 PM Asked by Shinjuku

A. The tax issue is only one reason. If
the shareholders approve, ESV will move
its corporate HQS to UK. It does not
change their operations. Their key
customers are in Europe and the move
will purportedly give them better access
to European institutional investors.
The only thing I see is that the street
may see additional expenses in the move
that might cause some short term
weakness or maybe the street doesn't buy
their reasoning... Just my thoughts on
