Hello, this is Dad Manatee. I will summarize the Q4 dividends and updates for Bando JTF, SOXX, SOCQ, SOXL, and SOXL. SOXX and SOCQ track the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, SOXL is a triple-leveraged IC semiconductor index ETF, and SOXL is a triple-leveraged inverse ETF. Looking at the constituent stocks first, the rankings from 1st to 5th place differ slightly, but they consist of the same stocks.
AMD, Broadcom, Nvidia, Qualcomm, and Texas Intermediate are companies that manufacture AI chips; SOXL and SOXL have a heavy weighting in AMD and Broadcom, while SOXX has a heavy weighting in Broadcom and Nvidia. The composition from 6th to 12th place is quite different. Now, let's look at the dividends.
First is SOXL. The Q4 dividend for SOXL is $0.08, a 28% increase from Q3 and a 22% increase compared to Q4 2023. The ex-dividend date was December 23rd, and Q4 is December 31st. The cumulative dividend for 2024 is $0.31, which doubled compared to 2023. Based on the year-end bonus, the dividend yield is 1.2%.
Although the dividend doubled, the bonus decreased by 13% in 2023, resulting in a significantly higher dividend yield. However, it appears to be rising again in January. Next is Soxx. The Q4 dividend for Soxx is $0.358, a 35% decrease from the third quarter and a 4.3% decrease compared to Q4 2023. The ex-dividend date was December 17th, and [date] is December 20th.
The cumulative dividend for 2024 is $0.145, with a dividend yield of 0.7%. Unlike Soxx VAI, the stock price rose 12% in 2024 compared to 2023, and the upward trend is continuing in January of this year. Next is SXQ. The Q4 dividend for SXQ is $0.069, a 1.4% increase from the third quarter but a 99.3% decrease compared to Q4 2023.
The ex-dividend date is December. It was the 23rd, and Dividend 1 is on December 27th. The cumulative dividend for 2024 is $0.267, with a dividend yield of 0.7%. Like SOXX, the stock price showed an upward trend throughout 2023. Finally, there is SOXXS. The Q4 dividend for SOXXS N is $0.30, a 29% increase from Q3 and a 4.8-fold increase compared to Q4 2023.
Dividend 1 appears to be SXL. The cumulative dividend for 2024 is $0.846, which increased 5.3-fold from 2023, and the dividend yield finished at 3.8%. However, the stock price continues to be on a downward trend, having fallen 62% throughout 2023. Comparing stock prices over the past six months, the inverse SS MAN has risen compared to six months ago, while the others have fallen.
SOXX, in particular, has experienced the largest decline. Due to the AI boom, the semiconductor index performed well until July, but it has fallen significantly since then. It appears that there was a correction at the peak, and in early August and September, the US The market was also affected by concerns about an economic recession stemming from poor employment figures.
However, just when it seemed the index was recovering following a significant interest rate cut in mid-September, the positive effects of President Trump's election began to wear off in mid-November. As the Fed adopted a cautious stance regarding interest rate cuts and U.S. Treasury yields surged, the index fell further.
Since then, the market has failed to show signs of recovery. It is reported that a selling bias is emerging due to disappointment over the lack of significant upward momentum in semiconductor stocks following the U.S. presidential election. While semiconductor stocks performed well overall during the first half of the year, they have shown significant weakness in the second half.
When comparing over the past year, the SOX has actually declined while other ETFs have risen. The problem is that the situation in 2025 is not going to be easy. U.S. Treasury yields remain high, and the prevailing outlook is that the Trump administration will re-emerge with high tariffs and fiscal expansion.
Furthermore, the semiconductor sector is generally sluggish except for AI. I believe we need to closely monitor when Treasury yields begin to fall in earnest. However, the fact that semiconductor stocks shifted to a bull market last week can serve as some consolation. That is all for today's content. Thank you for watching.
