Graphics chipmaker Nvidia (NVDA - Free Report) is set to release third-quarter fiscal 2022 results on Nov 17, after market close. NVIDIA has been rallying over the past three months, reaping gains of 50.5% and outperforming the industry average of 21.5%. This uptrend is likely to continue given that the chipmaker has a potential to beat estimates in its Q3 report.
Given the higher chances of an earnings beat, ETFs having the largest allocation to Nvidia could make compelling plays ahead of its earnings report. These include VanEck Vectors Semiconductor ETF (SMH - Free Report) , VanEck Vectors Video Gaming and eSports ETF (ESPO - Free Report) , Invesco PHLX Semiconductor ETF (SOXQ - Free Report) and iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX - Free Report) .
