Where IVE and SCHX differ

Sector weights as a share of each fund, ordered by the size of the gap rather than the size of the sector — two funds that overlap heavily still usually diverge somewhere.

Δ is IVE minus SCHX, in percentage points. Sector data is not published by every issuer, so “Unclassified” is a real category rather than a gap in the table.

Frequently asked

How much do IVE and SCHX overlap?

IVE and SCHX overlap 52.9% by portfolio weight — substantial duplication if you hold both. They share 404 holdings. The figure comes from current issuer holdings files (IVE as of 2026-07-23, SCHX as of 2026-05-31).

How is the overlap between IVE and SCHX calculated?

As the sum of the smaller weight in each fund, over every holding both funds own: Σ min(wA, wB). If IVE holds a stock at 6% and SCHX 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.

Is it redundant to hold both IVE and SCHX?

That depends on your goals — we state facts, not advice. At 52.9% overlap, each fund still contributes meaningfully distinct exposure.

What does IVE own that SCHX doesn't?

IVE holds 440 positions and SCHX holds 750; 35 of IVE's positions don't appear in SCHX at all, and they are 5.4% of IVE by weight.
