Is This The End Of The Software Era? Rethinking IGV And XSW In An AI-Driven World
AI is fundamentally disrupting the software industry, lowering barriers to entry and intensifying competition, especially for mid-sized companies. Large software firms with strong moats, brand power, and data — like Microsoft, Salesforce, Spotify and Palo Alto Networks — are better positioned to adapt and benefit from AI. IGV ETF is preferable due to its concentration in resilient, leading software companies likely to withstand and capitalize on AI-driven changes; I rate IGV as hold.

XSW: Diversified Exposure To Software's A.I. Backed Boom
XSW offers diversified exposure to the software sector, balancing large, mid, and small caps, unlike concentrated large-cap peers like VGT. The fund is well-positioned to benefit from accelerating A.I. adoption and robust software industry growth, especially in SaaS and digitalization trends. Attractive valuation metrics and a lower P/E than broader IT ETFs provide compelling growth at a reasonable price, despite moderate liquidity risks.

XSW ETF: Software Is The Place To Be, But Here's A Better Choice
The global software market is projected to grow at an 11.3% CAGR through 2030, driven by AI, cybersecurity, IoT, and digital transformation technologies. The XSW ETF's equal-weight strategy results in lower top-holding weightings and underperformance compared to more concentrated funds like the IGV ETF. The IGV ETF, with a concentrated portfolio and strong historical returns (a 10-year avg. annual return of 16.8%), is better positioned for capital appreciation despite a slightly higher expense fee.
