Why XLK’s Next Rebalance Won’t Fix Its Massive Concentration Problem

Quick Read XLK's semiconductor holdings total ~42% of the portfolio, which is three times Nvidia's 15% stake, turning the $123.9B "diversified tech" fund into a massive chip bet.

XLK's benchmark caps individual company weights but sets no semiconductor industry limit, so rebalancing Nvidia simply shifts dollars to AMD, Broadcom, or Micron.
