Our read on XLG
BThe S&P 500's top shelf, bottled on its own. About 50 of the largest US companies, weighted by size, tracked since 2005. The same giants a total-market fund owns, without the several hundred smaller names riding behind them.
The fund seeks to track the performance of the S&P 500 Top 50 Index by investing at least 90% of assets in securities included in that index.
Why people hold it
- Concentration on purpose: it holds the 50 largest S&P 500 companies by float-adjusted market cap, weighted the same way, so the biggest names carry the most weight.finance.yahoo.com
- A two-decade track record (live since 2005) with index tracking that stays close to the benchmark and an actively traded market in the shares.
- A lineup you can actually read: roughly 50 holdings, all household names, with cash paid out to shareholders quarterly.
Worth knowing
- At 0.20% a year it costs more than the typical large-cap index fund in its group, where rivals like SCHX and VV charge 0.03%.
- Non-diversified by SEC definition. With about 50 stocks, one giant or one sector stumbling moves this fund more than it moves a 500-stock index.finance.yahoo.com
- It is the S&P 500 minus its smaller half, so next to a broad US fund it concentrates exposure you likely already hold rather than adding a new corner of the market.
