However, sharp swings are nothing new for the sector. Since 1995, the PHLX Semiconductor Index has experienced an average intra-year decline of 29.8%, yet still finished the year higher in 20 of those 31 years. 2026 has been no exception: Despite falling as much as 28.6% from its highs, the index remains up a remarkable 66% year-to-date, even after three consecutive years of double-digit returns, including a peak-to-trough decline of 35%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While volatility is likely to persist, the underlying AI investment cycle remains supportive. Hyperscalers continue to invest heavily in expanding AI capacity and are expected to invest almost $800 billion in capex in 2026 and reach more than $1 trillion in 2027. The spending should continue to support the &#8220;picks and shovels&#8221; of the AI buildout, from semiconductors and memory to networking and data-center infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For investors, periods of volatility are a reminder to look beyond short-term price swings and the importance of portfolio construction. Despite a compelling long-term growth story, semiconductors are, and are likely to remain, a volatile part of the market. Careful position sizing, disciplined use of leverage and exposure to diversifying assets can help investors withstand periods of sharp volatility while maintaining exposure to the sector\u2019s long-term growth potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1003\" height=\"399\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-24-100918.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-254318 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-24-100918.png 1003w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-24-100918-700x278.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-24-100918-300x119.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-24-100918-768x306.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1003px) 100vw, 1003px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1003px; aspect-ratio: 1003\/399;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chart of the Week: Source: FactSet, Nasdaq , J.P.
