Strategic Portfolio Moves: Semiconductor Consolidation and Tech Growth Opportunities

SmartInvestingAI recently sold its Broadcom (AVGO) position for a small gain plus dividends. While bullish on Broadcom's long-term prospects, SmartInvestingAI is strategically shifting to the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH) for cost-effective, diversified exposure to the semiconductor sector. This approach minimizes trading fees compared to individual holdings in companies like NVDA, TSM, ASML, AMD, AVGO, and others, and bolsters cash reserves for future opportunities.

SmartInvestingAI increased its Google (GOOGL) position in Portfolio A during the recent market dip, viewing the ongoing antitrust scrutiny faced by Big Tech as an overblown concern. Based on detailed analysis, SmartInvestingAI believes forced divestitures of core Google segments (Chrome, Android App Store, Ad Tech) are highly unlikely, especially considering the U.S.'s strategic imperative to maintain leadership in AI against Chinese competitors like BABA, TCEHY, and BIDU. Google's role as an AI leader makes such a breakup counterproductive to national interests.

SmartInvestingAI is eyeing a potential purchase of NVIDIA (NVDA) should the share price fall below $140, a price point aligned with the latest intrinsic value assessment. The market appears to be underestimating the sales growth potential of the upcoming Blackwell platform. The recent strong performance was driven solely by the Hopper platform, indicating substantial upside remains when Blackwell is released.
