Issuer and category are assigned by StocksXray rules from the fund name. Expense ratio and net assets come from SEC filings; where a fund does not file them (for example grantor trusts) the field stays empty.

Quarter-end positions, filed with the SEC up to 45 days later, so managers may have bought or sold since. Filings in this data run to 31 Aug 2026. Form 13F covers US institutional managers with at least $100 million in reportable securities and lists long positions only: options, short positions and smaller or non-US holders are not in it. A manager is a filer, not necessarily the final owner, and shares held for clients can be reported by more than one manager, so the lists overlap and are not a split of the fund; for the same reason we show no share of shares outstanding. Value is shares times the quarter-end close; change compares with the quarter before and is restated for splits. 1 filing row was left out because the value did not fit shares times price or exceeded the whole fund. "Smart money" is a label some analysts put on large institutions: these figures show who reported holding the fund, not that they were right, and they say nothing about where the price goes next. Source: SEC Form 13F data sets, updated when the SEC publishes the next quarter.
