Methodology
The ETF universe
We enumerate the complete list of U.S.-listed exchange-traded funds and refresh it regularly so newly launched funds appear and delisted ones drop off. Each fund gets its own page at /etf/<TICKER>.
Quotes
Prices are real-time where the data provider marks them as such, and otherwise delayed by at least 20 minutes. Each fund page labels whether its quote is real-time or delayed and shows the quote timestamp. Quotes are cached briefly and refreshed when a page is viewed.
Performance
Trailing returns (1 month, 3 months, 6 months, year-to-date, 1, 3, and 5 years) are total returns computed from adjusted closing prices, which account for distributions and splits. Returns are point-to-point using the most recent close versus the close on (or just before) the start of each window.
Fund classification
We group funds into browsable sectors and themes (technology, healthcare, bonds, dividends, gold and commodities, international, leveraged/inverse, and more) using a rules-based classifier applied to each fund’s name. This is a convenience for browsing and is not a regulatory or issuer classification.
Trending
The “trending” ranking favors funds with elevated trading activity — a blend of dollar volume, volume relative to the fund’s 50-day average, and the size of the day’s move. It is a measure of attention, not a quality or performance rating.
Holdings, fees, and prospectus
Net assets, expense ratios, holdings, and prospectus links are drawn from fund-stat providers and public SEC filings (including N-PORT portfolio filings and registration documents). Holdings and fees can lag the fund’s own latest disclosures; always confirm against the official prospectus.
