Frequently asked

How much do TSPC and VNQ overlap?

How is the overlap between TSPC and VNQ calculated?

As the sum of the smaller weight in each fund, over every holding both funds own: Σ min(wA, wB). If TSPC holds a stock at 6% and VNQ 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 2.0% overlap, each fund still contributes meaningfully distinct exposure.
