Today's summary
On a constituent basis, Baron Global Durable Advantage ETF's theoretical return is +0.34%p. Today's biggest hero is Amazon.com, contributing +0.32%p (return +4.98%). The biggest suspect dragging it down is ASML, at +0.01%p.
Its top 10 holdings make up about 70.5% of the fund. The concentration index (HHI) is 627 — Low — evenly diversified, and the largest sector is Information Technology (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 (627), so no single holding dominates.
The largest sector is Information Technology at 28% — industries are reasonably spread.
0.75% a year is on the high side — about 7.5% over a decade, so it needs a reason to earn that.
Net assets of $10M are small. Thin funds trade at wider spreads, and very small ones get closed or merged.
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 627, with the top 10 holdings at just 70.5% 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 Information Technology(28%) · Financials(25%) · Consumer Discretionary(12%), 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, MPLY, overlaps only 39% (8 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 41 positions in total; this page lists the largest 20 and folds the rest into "Others".
Equities are 73.6% 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 0.75% 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.
