Method

The 26 hedged equity ETFs ETFIQ measures, of which 24 publish net assets. Across the funds listed here correlation with the S&P 500 runs from -0.7 to 1.0.

The rest of the method

Size does not show how much a fund diversifies. The correlation column does. The list sorts one published number, with no scoring or weighting. Every fund ETFIQ covers in this category is eligible, closed funds included.
