Pardon the rookie question, but I haven't purchased SMH shares before. I noticed at amex.com that a fee is mentioned for holding SMH shares -- $2/100 shares/quarter. That could get a bit expensive. Can anyone tell me if that's correct? Thanks. _________________________________________________________ Fees and Expenses Custody Fees: The Bank of New York, as trustee and custodian, will charge you a quarterly custody fee of $2.00 for each round-lot of 100 Semiconductor HOLDRS to be deducted from any cash dividend or other cash distribution on underlying securities received by the trust.
