The recent stock market rally has seen the S&P 500 Index and Dow Jones Industrial Average make new highs but not the Nasdaq Composite.

While the Nasdaq has come within a half percent of its high, SMH has only come within 7 percent of its high.
Today, we highlight the Semiconductors under-performance as an important one to watch.
