- As of Nov 4, 2026, US ETFs have $15.9 trillion in net assets, and the median fund has $110 million; 38% of funds have under $50 million.
In plain words
Net assets are what a fund owns minus what it owes: the basket’s value plus cash, less costs. Some sites call it assets under management.
The median ETF has $110 million; 1,866 funds have under $50 million and 387 have over $5 billion. A few very large funds make up most of the $15.9 trillion. Small funds often trade with wider gaps and close more often. The number moves daily, so ETFIQ prints its date.
Questions
- How does ETFIQ get net assets?
From each issuer’s daily disclosure where it publishes one, and from SEC filings otherwise. Every number carries its date.
- Are small ETFs risky?
A small fund can close. ETFIQ marks closed funds and keeps their page. It also shows trading cost, which is usually higher for small funds.
- What is the difference between net assets and market cap?
A stock has a market cap. A fund has net assets: the value of everything it owns less what it owes.
