Method

Ranked on the most recent net assets ETFIQ can source for each fund, with the kind of source named beside it. Size is not a measure of anything a fund did. It is where the money is. The ranking is the published field sorted, nothing else: no scoring, no weighting and no view on any fund. Every fund ETFIQ covers in this category is eligible, including funds that have closed, because leaving them out would flatter the category.
