How is materials sector performance measured here?
It is the combined change in market value of the group's companies, so larger companies count for more. Dividends are not included. The XLB fund tracks a similar group but caps its largest holdings, so its return can differ.

Company list and sectors come from the public SEC Form N-PORT filings of the Select Sector SPDR funds, holdings dated 2026-06-30, so they can lag recent index changes. This is not official index data. S&P 500 is a trademark of S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, which does not sponsor or endorse Quantisnow. Returns are price only, without dividends.
