2026-03-31 → 2026-06-30

100 positions became 100: 0 added (0.0% of the fund at the later date), 0 dropped (0.0% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 6.6%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of FGD compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.
