Our read on CHPS
ASemiconductors without the semiconductor markup. CHPS tracks a global chip index with an ESG screen baked in, holds roughly 50 names, and charges 0.15%, undercutting the category's household names.
The fund seeks investment results corresponding generally to the performance of the Solactive Semiconductor ESG Screened Index before fees and expenses.
Why people hold it
- At 0.15%, one of the cheapest doors into chips. SMH and SOXX each charge more than double.
- Global mandate, so foreign foundries and equipment makers are in scope, not just the US-listed marquee names.
- The ESG screen sits inside the index itself: the chip universe gets filtered before the portfolio is built.
- Simple plumbing. Roughly 50 holdings, one published index, cash paid out quarterly.
Worth knowing
- Trades thinly next to SMH and SOXX. Spreads can be wider, and size takes more care to get filled.
- Launched in 2023, so the record is short against chip funds that have lived through several boom-bust cycles.
- The screen excludes some chip companies outright, so the lineup can look different from unscreened rivals.
