Semiconductors Continue to Crush Broader Market Over Long Term Despite Volatility

The semiconductor sector has crushed the broader market and tech sector over the past decade, returning over 740% in that time.

Many investors avoid semiconductors due to volatility, but the sector rewards long-term investors.

Semiconductors power innovation in AI, cloud computing, smartphones, and more. Sector growth is projected at 11.6% through 2030.

The sector's outperformance isn't just driven by Nvidia. 7 of the top 10 best-performing S&P 500 stocks of the past decade are semiconductor companies.

With semiconductors powering automation and connectivity, the sector remains a strong long-term investment despite some investor wariness.
