Today's summary
On a constituent basis, Absolute Select Value ETF's theoretical return is +0.04%p. Today's biggest hero is Air Products and Chemicals, contributing +0.04%p (return +1.32%). The biggest suspect dragging it down is Air Products and Chemicals, at +0.04%p.
Its top 10 holdings make up about 77.6% of the fund. The concentration index (HHI) is 781 — Low — evenly diversified, and the largest sector is Financials (28%). The higher the concentration, the more one stock or sector drives the whole ETF's return.
Structural health
A five-axis read on how this fund is built. It is not a return forecast or a recommendation, and a low score does not mean a bad fund — leveraged products score low by design. Each axis shows the figure behind it.
Concentration is below 1,500 (781), so no single holding dominates.
The largest sector is Financials at 28% — industries are reasonably spread.
0.85% a year is on the high side — about 8.5% over a decade, so it needs a reason to earn that.
Net assets of $144M — liquid enough to trade, and unlikely to be wound down.
A plain 1x physical fund holding the shares themselves — no structural drift from how long you hold it.

Where the weight sits — sector mix
Listed equity weights summed by sector and normalized to 100%. Each band is one sector's share.
Industry breakdown
HHI sums the squared weights. The more it leans on a few names, the higher it goes — and the more the whole ETF moves with them.
How concentrated is it
Concentration (HHI) is low at 781, with the top 10 holdings at just 77.6% of equity weight. No single name can dominate the fund.
Good for damping single-stock risk — and equally, a big winner inside gets diluted.
HHI squares each weight and sums them: 10,000 means one stock is everything, and the more evenly spread the holdings, the closer it falls to zero.
Where the sector weight sits
Sectors run Financials(28%) · Industrials(16%) · Energy(14%), and even the largest is only 28% — no meaningful industry tilt.
This is built to track a market rather than to call a sector.
Weights above sum the individually listed equities and normalize that equity total to 100%.
How much it overlaps others
Even its closest peer, DYNB, overlaps only 14% (2 shared names).
Funds filed under the same label can hold quite different companies, so pairing this one with another may genuinely spread risk.
What it is made of
The fund holds 23 positions in total; this page lists the largest 17 and folds the rest into "Others".
Equities are 71.5% of the fund, the rest swaps and cash — index exposure built synthetically rather than by owning the shares, which adds counterparty risk.
The expense ratio is 0.85% a year, which is not cheap. Fees come out of returns every year you hold, so it is worth checking whether the same index is available for less.
