Frequently asked

How much do IJH and VTI overlap?

How is the overlap between IJH and VTI calculated?

As the sum of the smaller weight in each fund, over every holding both funds own: Σ min(wA, wB). If IJH holds a stock at 6% and VTI holds the same stock at 4%, 4% counts as shared. The result is bounded between 0% and 100%, and it is computed after looking through any fund-of-funds to the underlying holdings.

That depends on your goals — we state facts, not advice. At 5.1% overlap, each fund still contributes meaningfully distinct exposure.
