It is a rule, not a fund. ETFIQ takes no payment from any fund company. Why are the benchmark\u2019s returns hypothetical? Its rule was frozen on a set date. Returns before that date apply today\u2019s rule and funds to earlier prices. The fund\u2019s own returns use its market price with distributions reinvested. The price source leaves out funds that closed before 2016, so results lean toward funds that survived. Total returns use market price with distributions reinvested, after each fund\u2019s own fees. Nothing else is deducted. The price source leaves out funds that closed before 2016, so results lean toward funds that survived.
