Semiconductors, equal-weighted, based at 200 S&P 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 57 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

02 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

Is Semiconductors outperforming S&P 500?

Semiconductors has outperformed S&P 500 by 90.2% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 2.8%. 20 of 27 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Micron Technology, Inc. is the strongest against the sector itself at +49.3%.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

Bottom line

Semiconductors has outperformed S&P 500 by 90.2% over 52 weeks and 2.8% over 13 weeks. 20 of 27 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 9 of 27 beat the sector itself. NVIDIA Corporation leads with revenue of $253,491 million, based on 14 of 27 comparable companies through Jun 2026.

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
Micron Technology, Inc. has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 71.1% evidence confidence.
Marvell Technology, Inc. has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action

Micron Technology, Inc. has the strongest one-year price move in Semiconductors at +650.8%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against the S&P 500 at +78.5%. 20 of 27 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 314 weekly closes through 2026-08-04.

Price and relative strength

Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

NVIDIA Corporation has the highest Revenue among the 27 Semiconductors companies compared here, at $253,491 million. Micron Technology, Inc. is next at $90,274 million. Astera Labs, Inc. has the highest Revenue growth at the 100% top of the scoring scale, so level and change sit with different companies. Its Revenue series carries 19 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.

What the numbers say: NVIDIA Corporation is the scale leader at $253,491 million, 180.8% ahead of Micron Technology, Inc.. Astera Labs, Inc.'s growth is stored at the ≥100% scoring cap; the uncapped TTM change is 104.5% from a $1,002 million base, with 17 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderNVIDIA Corporation · $253,491 million
Gap180.8% versus #2 · Micron Technology, Inc.
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage14/27 companies · 476 observations

Investor read: NVIDIA Corporation is the scale benchmark; Astera Labs, Inc. is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: NVIDIA Corporation's growth falls below Astera Labs, Inc.'s for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

LeaderMicron Technology, Inc. · 80.4%
Gap22.6% versus #2 · NVIDIA Corporation
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage27/27 companies · 476 observations

Investor read: Micron Technology, Inc. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current margin change signal.

Operating margin compares operating profit with revenue. Improvement is measured in percentage points, not percentage growth.

LeaderNVIDIA Corporation · $159,613 million
Gap216.3% versus #2 · Micron Technology, Inc.
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage14/27 companies · 477 observations

Investor read: NVIDIA Corporation sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Net profit is the residual after operating costs, interest and tax. Growth off a loss or near-zero base is excluded from the fastest-grower rank.

Return On Capital Employed

Micron Technology, Inc. has the highest ROCE among the 27 Semiconductors companies compared here, at 36.4%. NVIDIA Corporation is next at 34.1%. The same company also holds the highest ROCE change, at +33 percentage points. 27 of 27 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026. Its ROCE series carries 19 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.

What the numbers say: Micron Technology, Inc. leads ROCE at 36.4%, 2.3 percentage points above NVIDIA Corporation. Micron Technology, Inc. has the strongest latest improvement at +33 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.

LeaderMicron Technology, Inc. · 36.4%
Gap6.7% versus #2 · NVIDIA Corporation
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage27/27 companies · 485 observations

Investor read: Micron Technology, Inc. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Microchip Technology Incorporated has the lowest PEG among the 27 Semiconductors companies compared here, at 0.78×. NVIDIA Corporation is next at 0.79×. Micron Technology, Inc. has the lowest P/E at 20.9×, so level and change sit with different companies. 6 of 27 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Microchip Technology Incorporated has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.78×, 1.3% below NVIDIA Corporation. Only 6 of 27 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

Gap1.3% versus #2 · NVIDIA Corporation
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage6/27 companies · 33 observations

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Semiconductors comparison names 5 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 6 of the 27 companies report on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so their ranks are marked stale. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
  • An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
  • 6 companies have older fundamental reporting dates than the sector’s freshest reporters; their ranks carry a stale marker.

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 27 Semiconductors companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Sep 2026 and market data through 2026-08-04. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

Semiconductors company comparison FAQs

These 22 answers restate the Semiconductors comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 27 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Sep 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-08-04. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

Is the Semiconductors sector outperforming S&P 500?

Semiconductors has outperformed S&P 500 by 90.2% over 52 weeks and 2.8% over 13 weeks. 20 of 27 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 9 of 27 beat the sector itself.

Which Semiconductors company is largest by revenue?

NVIDIA Corporation leads with revenue of $253,491 million, based on 14 of 27 comparable companies through Jun 2026.

Which Semiconductors company is growing fastest?

Astera Labs, Inc. has the fastest current revenue growth at 100%, across 13 of 27 comparable companies.

Which Semiconductors company has the strongest 4-Factor Sector Score?

Micron Technology, Inc. ranks first at 74/100 with 71.1% evidence confidence. The score prioritizes research; it is not a buy recommendation.

Which Semiconductors company has the lowest comparable PEG?

Microchip Technology Incorporated has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.78, among 6 of 27 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything.

How much history does this Semiconductors comparison include?

The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Sep 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.

How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?

The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.

Which Semiconductors company is the biggest?

NVIDIA Corporation is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of $253,491 million, ahead of Micron Technology, Inc. at $90,274 million. That covers 14 of 27 companies with comparable reporting through Jun 2026.

Which Semiconductors company has the best profit margins?

Micron Technology, Inc. has the highest operating margin at 80.4%, from 27 of 27 comparable companies. Micron Technology, Inc. shows the biggest recent improvement, at +57.1 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which Semiconductors company makes the most profit?

NVIDIA Corporation earns the most, at $159,613 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 14 of 27 comparable companies. Astera Labs, Inc. has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which Semiconductors company earns the highest return on capital?

Micron Technology, Inc. leads on return on capital employed at 36.4%, across 27 of 27 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.

Which Semiconductors stock is the cheapest?

On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Microchip Technology Incorporated screens cheapest at 0.78×. Only 6 of 27 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.

Is the Semiconductors sector beating the market?

Semiconductors has outperformed S&P 500 by 90.2% over the last 52 weeks and 2.8% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 20 of 27 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.

Which Semiconductors stock has the strongest price momentum?

Micron Technology, Inc. has the strongest relative strength against S&P 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.

Which Semiconductors company scores highest for research priority?

Micron Technology, Inc. scores 74 out of 100 with 71.1% evidence confidence, from 28.4 points on growth and earnings, 19.5 on capital efficiency, 11.5 on valuation and 14.6 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.

How many Semiconductors companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 27 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals, ending Sep 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.

What is the total market cap of the Semiconductors sector?

The 27 Semiconductors companies on this page carry $11,111,455 million of combined market value. NVIDIA Corporation is the largest at $5,133,298 million, about 46% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-08-04.

What is the Semiconductors sector's P/E ratio?

The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 27 Semiconductors companies on this page is 66×, measured on the 27 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-08-04.

How is the Semiconductors sector performing?

20 of the 27 covered Semiconductors companies are beating S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 90.2% ahead of S&P 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members. Readings are as of 2026-08-04.

How many Semiconductors stocks are listed in the US?

This comparison covers 27 listed Semiconductors companies in the US, each above the size floor the site applies. The full ranked list is on this page, with reported fundamentals through Sep 2026. Membership is the full industry list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.

Why are some values on this page blank?

A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.

Is this investment advice?

No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
