What does this overlap mean?

Their disclosed top holdings share essentially nothing — typical for funds covering different markets (e.g. US vs ex-US) or different corners of one market. The 92.1% sector overlap reflects a similar sector mix, not duplicated top positions: weighting the same industries is not owning the same stocks. On their biggest positions, treat the pair as complements, not duplicates.

How we calculate it

Holdings overlap sums min(weight in fund A, weight in fund B) across positions that appear in both funds' disclosed top-holdings lists — public data discloses only each fund's largest positions, so this number is a lower bound on true full-portfolio overlap. Sector overlap applies the same min() logic to the funds' complete sector allocations, which cover ~100% of each fund, making it the more complete signal of duplication.

Data & methodology disclaimer

This tool is for education, not investment advice. Holdings and sector data come from public market-data feeds, reflect each fund's most recently disclosed top positions, and can lag the fund's actual portfolio. Overlap computed from disclosed top holdings is a lower bound. Always verify against the fund provider's official holdings file before making decisions.
