One ETF turned $10K into $300K+ over 10 years.

These 3 are the best ones:

1/ $VanEck Semiconductor ETF(SMH)$

— VanEck Semiconductor $10K → ~$115K (2016–2026) 27.7% annualized the single best ETF of the decade

The purest AI bet on the board.

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $Broadcom(AVGO)$ $Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ sit at top weight. Every data-center buildout on earth runs through these names.

2/ $Vanguard Information Technology ETF(VGT)$

— Vanguard Information Technology $10K → ~$72K 21.8% annualized | 0.09% fee

The "boring" one that quietly crushed it. 300+ tech names for almost no cost.

You barely felt you owned it and it still doubled the S&P.

3/ $Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLK)$

— Technology Select Sector $10K → ~$67K 20.9% annualized The megacap-tech core.

$Apple(AAPL)$ $Microsoft(MSFT)$ $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ doing the heavy lifting.

Less concentrated than SMH, more punch than the S&P.

The lesson of the last decade wasn't "trade harder." It was own the sector, keep the fee low, and let it compound.

$SMH. $VGT. $XLK. Which one are you holding?
