Today's summary
On a constituent basis, Vanguard Small-Cap ETF's theoretical return is -0.01%p. Today's biggest hero is Atmos Energy, contributing +0.00%p (return +1.45%). The biggest suspect dragging it down is ATI, at -0.01%p.
Its top 10 holdings make up about 53.9% of the fund. The concentration index (HHI) is 454 — Low — evenly diversified, and the largest sector is Information Technology (35%). 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 (454), so no single holding dominates.
The largest sector is Information Technology at 35% — industries are reasonably spread.
A plain 1x physical fund holding the shares themselves — no structural drift from how long you hold it.
We don't have cost, fund size for Vanguard Small-Cap ETF yet, so those axes are excluded and the score is based on the other 3. Scoring a missing figure as zero would grade our data collection, not the fund.

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 454, with the top 10 holdings at just 53.9% 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
Sector weights run Information Technology(35%) · Health Care(33%) · Industrials(12%). At 35%, the leading sector is a clear tilt.
Expect it to ride that industry's cycle — ahead of the index in good stretches, behind in bad ones.
Weights above sum the individually listed equities and normalize that equity total to 100%.
How much it overlaps others
Even its closest peer, VBK, overlaps only 37% (17 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 25 positions in total; this page lists the largest 24 and folds the rest into "Others".
Equities are 9.2% of the fund, the rest swaps and cash — index exposure built synthetically rather than by owning the shares, which adds counterparty risk.
