Plus, emerging innovations like quantum computing, robotics, and self-driving vehicles would remain nothing more than science fiction.<\/p>\n<p>History suggests investing in the semiconductor industry tends to yield significant rewards over the long term.

That was four times higher than the return in the <strong>S&#038;P 500<\/strong> over the same period. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"caption\">SOXX data by YCharts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Micron Technology <\/strong><span class=\"ticker-mention inline-flex items-center font-bold\" data-id=\"204594\">(MU <span class=\"ml-1 text-green-900\">+3.08%<\/span>)<\/span>, <strong>Advanced Micro Devices<\/strong> <span class=\"ticker-mention inline-flex items-center font-bold\" data-id=\"202799\">(AMD <span class=\"ml-1 text-green-900\">+8.32%<\/span>)<\/span>, and <strong>Nvidia<\/strong> <span class=\"ticker-mention inline-flex items-center font-bold\" data-id=\"204770\">(NVDA <span class=\"ml-1 text-green-900\">+7.87%<\/span>)<\/span> are among the largest holdings in the iShares ETF, and they have made significant contributions to its historical returns.
