About SOXX valuation

Adding up its 30 holdings with company data, SOXX trades at 37.1 times trailing earnings and 20.5 times analysts' forward estimates, with a price-to-book ratio of 10.79 and a dividend yield of 0.62%. Its earnings yield of 2.69% is 2.63 percentage points below the 5.33% yield to maturity of the U.S. bond market (AGG).

The ten largest holdings are 61.5% of the fund and earn 59.1% of its combined profit. Companies that lost money over the past year are 8.6% of the covered weight.

How these figures are calculated. Each ratio treats the fund as one company: the earnings, sales and book value of every holding are added up in proportion to its weight and divided into the fund's price. In practice that is a weighted harmonic mean, so a single stock with a very high P/E cannot distort the result, and loss-making companies reduce the fund's earnings instead of being dropped. Covers 100.0% of the fund's weight (U.S.-listed stocks with company data); company figures as of October 26, 2026.
