VanEck Vectors Semiconductor ETF price ended at $558.83 on Monday, after gaining 0.413%
(Updated on Jul 20, 2026)
The VanEck Vectors Semiconductor ETF price gained 0.413% on the last trading day (Monday, 20th Jul 2026), rising from $556.53 to $558.83. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 2.78% from a day low at $557.29 to a day high of $572.76. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -7.52% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -15 million shares and in total, 7 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $3.82 billion. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.
The ETF lies in the lower part of a very wide and strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $558.40 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 19.31% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $666.20 and $840.41 at the end of this 3-month period.
SMH Signals & Forecast
Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The ETF should be watched closely. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The VanEck Vectors Semiconductor ETF holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $581.72 and $609.37. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Monday, June 22, 2026, and so far it has fallen -16.46%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).
