SOXX and SMEA: what people ask

questions6 answered

How much do SOXX and SMEA overlap?

None by holdings, as of September 24, 2026: no company appears in both funds. By sector, 9.4% of their money sits in the same sectors, led by Information Technology.

Which stocks do SOXX and SMEA both hold?

None. SOXX and SMEA have no holding in common.

Is it redundant to hold both SOXX and SMEA?

No. Out of every $100 split evenly between them, none buys the same company. Half in each gives you 415 different holdings that behave like 63 equally weighted stocks, against 19 for SOXX alone and 104 for SMEA alone. Whether that mix suits you depends on what you want to own; this is a description, not advice.

What is SMEA, next to SOXX?

SMEA is iShares Core MSCI Europe UCITS ETF EUR (Acc) (ISIN IE00B4K48X80), an Irish-domiciled UCITS fund on the MSCI Europe index. Next to SOXX, it holds no company in common, as of September 24, 2026.

Does the SOXX vs SMEA overlap apply to other tickers?

Yes. SMEA also trades as IMAE (Euronext Amsterdam, EUR) and EUNK (Xetra, EUR). Each is the same portfolio in another currency, on another exchange or paying its dividends out, so SOXX and EUNK share no company either.

How is ETF overlap calculated here?

For every company held by both funds we take the smaller of its two weights and add them up. The weights come from the full holdings files iShares publish, not a top-10 sample, and companies are matched by their ISIN so share classes stay apart. Sector overlap applies the same rule to the issuers' sector labels; "behaves like N equally weighted stocks" is one over the sum of the squared weights.
