Compare another pair
Both funds come from IShares. IWB is an equity ETF, while IWD is a U.S. value equity ETF. IWB and IWD share a large chunk of the same portfolio weight. The overlap is driven by positions like GOOGL, AMZN, and GOOG, so owning both may not diversify your stock exposure as much as the fund names suggest.
Both funds come from IShares. IWB is an equity ETF, while IWD is a U.S. value equity ETF. Neither fund clearly dominates on breadth, so the practical difference is more about weighting, index construction, and cost. IWB has the lower expense ratio, while IWD charges more for its exposure.
The overlap is driven by a relatively small set of large shared positions. The top three shared holdings account for 9.23% of the score, which means the result is heavily influenced by the biggest common weights rather than a long tail of tiny positions.
Because IWB and IWD are closer in breadth, the better fit usually comes down to index methodology, issuer preference, and cost. IWB has the lower expense ratio, while IWD charges more for its exposure.
Concentration
The top three shared holdings explain 9.23% of the full overlap score.
That helps show whether the score comes from a handful of giant shared positions or from a broader mix of common holdings.
Shared Sector Tilt
Sector tags are not consistently available for the biggest shared positions in this dataset, so this comparison leans more on the specific holdings than on sector labels.
These are the holdings contributing the most to the overlap score between IWB and IWD.
