Each figure is the company's weight inside that fund, so the funds are read against each other and nothing is added up. A company listed on two exchanges counts once in a fund. Each bar in the mix is one fund as 100% of itself. Cash, bonds and funds we cannot open that come to under 1% of a bar are in Everything else.

Overlap is the smaller weight in every company both funds hold: the share of each fund the other already covers. Grouped by company, so a listing on two exchanges is one holding.

Reading the holdings history…

Holdings are published monthly, so this is the last publication, not this week. A re-weight counts once it moves 0.25 points of the fund or more — below that, weights are just prices moving.
