As of Nov 4, 2026, ETFIQ lists the holdings of 3,495 ETFs, a median of 94 positions, with 50% in the top ten of a theme fund.

### In plain words

The name says what a fund hopes to be; the holdings say what it is. Open the holdings and check three things: how many positions, how much sits in the top ten, and how much is not plain stock or bond.

Funds that look different can own much the same: of 37,717 pairs, 7.5% share more than half their weight. A fund of funds hides its holdings one level down, so look through. The portfolio tool adds up what you own company by company across every fund.

### Questions

Can the name mislead? Yes. A fund called “AI” may own mostly well known tech stocks that a broad fund also owns.

What is look-through? Reading a fund of funds down to the companies inside the funds it owns.

Where do I start? Open the fund’s holdings page, or add your funds to My portfolio.
