Compare another pair
IWM is an equity ETF from IShares, while SPTM is an equity ETF from SPDR. IWM and SPTM do not own much of the same portfolio weight. That usually means you are combining different parts of the market, with only a small amount of duplication through names like KYG3323L1005, NXT, and KTOS.
IWM is an equity ETF from IShares, while SPTM is an equity ETF from SPDR. Neither fund clearly dominates on breadth, so the practical difference is more about weighting, index construction, and cost. SPTM has the lower expense ratio, while IWM 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 2.69% of the score, which means the result is heavily influenced by the biggest common weights rather than a long tail of tiny positions.
Because IWM and SPTM are closer in breadth, the better fit usually comes down to index methodology, issuer preference, and cost. SPTM has the lower expense ratio, while IWM charges more for its exposure.
Concentration
The top three shared holdings explain 2.69% 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 IWM and SPTM.
