How much of a biotech fund is already in the S&P 500 decides how much of it is new exposure. Across these 10 funds the median is 31.3% of the weight. The rest is what you are buying that an index fund does not already hold.

Concentration is the other thing to read. The median biotech ETF here holds 47.6% of its weight in its top ten positions. That is what a theme fund does: it buys a shortlist, not a market.

ETFIQ files a fund under a theme editorially, from what the fund holds rather than from its name, and every figure on this page is the one its biotech hub prints.
