3Overlap with other funds
2Measured against every other fund on this site, from the same filings. Combined effective holdings is how the pair behaves held in equal size.
| With | Overlap | Shared | Combined effective |
|---|---|---|---|
| BOTZ vs ROBO | 24.79% | 23 | 49.5 |
| BOTZ vs AIQ | 7.85% | 7 | 48 |
As filed, collateral included
2.72% collateralBOTZ's filing lists 63 positions including 2.72% of net assets in securities-lending cash collateral. Counted as filed the fund reads 20.9 effective holdings with a top ten of 59.03%; on its own investments — the figure above — it reads 21.2 with a top ten of 58.73%. The collateral is matched by a liability and is not a holding the fund chose; since 2026-09-18 every figure on this site sets it aside (methodology). Both numbers are in the data.

Returns the fund reported
2019-09 – 2026-05Monthly total returns from Item B.5 of BOTZ's own filings, 81 months on record. Not computed here and not from a price feed.
No compounded figure is shown. This site's two readings of BOTZ's monthly returns — the filed figures and a series computed from prices — differ by a median of 1.35 percentage points over 81 months, more than distributions explain. Which is wrong cannot be told from the filings; the others in the same position are listed here.
Who borrows BOTZ's shares
2026-05-31The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-05-31, $267m was out to 15 borrowers, 7.13% of net assets. The largest, BARCLAYS BANK PLC, held 26.7% of it.
| Borrower | On loan | Share of the loan |
|---|---|---|
| BARCLAYS BANK PLC | $71m | 26.7% |
| BARCLAYS CAPITAL INC. | $47m | 17.6% |
| J.P. MORGAN SECURITIES PLC | $43m | 16.0% |
| UBS AG | $28m | 10.5% |
| BNP PARIBAS SECURITIES CORP | $27m | 10.1% |
Cash collateral reported against the loan: 2.72% of net assets, 38.1% of the amount lent. That is a floor on the collateral, not the whole of it — collateral the fund does not hold as a position is not in this filing, so a figure under 100% is not evidence of under-collateralisation. How that figure behaves across all funds. Every quarter BOTZ has filed, with each borrower: BOTZ.json · all funds.
Since the previous filing
2026-02-28 → 2026-05-3151 positions became 62: 20 added (25.3% of the fund at the later date), 9 dropped (12.9% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 29.3%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add.

99.9% of BOTZ is carried at a quoted market price (fair-value level 1). Categories and levels are the filer's, from Form N-PORT; what a low level-1 share does and does not mean is in the measure's page.
Derivative exposure and counterparties
as of 2026-05-31A position count cannot describe a fund that uses derivatives, because a swap is filed at its unrealised gain, not its exposure. These are the notionals the fund itself reported, against net assets of $3.74B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
