Frequently asked

How much do IWD and SWPPX overlap?

IWD and SWPPX overlap 57.1% by portfolio weight — substantial duplication if you hold both. They share 398 holdings. The figure comes from current issuer holdings files (IWD as of 2026-07-23, SWPPX as of 2026-04-30).

How is the overlap between IWD and SWPPX calculated?

As the sum of the smaller weight in each fund, over every holding both funds own: Σ min(wA, wB). If IWD holds a stock at 6% and SWPPX 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 57.1% overlap, each fund still contributes meaningfully distinct exposure.
