This visualization compares the portfolio overlap between five widely followed dividend-focused ETFs: SCHD, VIG, DGRO, HDV, and VYM. Each node represents an ETF, while each connection shows how much of the portfolio weight is shared between two funds. A high overlap indicates that the shared holdings make up a significant portion of both portfolios, but it does not mean the ETFs are identical. The additional statistics provide context on shared holding counts and how much of one fund is represented within another.
The strongest connection in the network is between VIG and DGRO, with a 69% overlap by portfolio weight and 244 overlapping holdings. This indicates that many of their largest portfolio positions contribute substantially to both funds.
DGRO and VYM show a 62% overlap by portfolio weight with 257 overlapping holdings, while VIG and VYM follow closely at 61% and 207 shared holdings. These relationships highlight a cluster of funds with significant exposure to many of the same companies, even though each ETF maintains its own portfolio construction methodology.
SCHD has relatively modest overlap with VIG (14%), DGRO (20%), and VYM (21%). Its strongest relationship is with HDV at 47%, suggesting SCHD shares more portfolio weight with HDV than with the other ETFs included in this network.
Some links show noticeable asymmetry between the directional percentages. For example, 99% of HDV's holdings are also found in VYM, while only 12% of VYM's holdings are also in HDV. This reflects differences in portfolio breadth rather than identical portfolios and illustrates how a more concentrated fund can largely fit within a much broader one.
Each node represents an ETF and each connecting edge represents the reported portfolio-weight overlap between two funds. Edge thickness and color are determined by the supplied overlapByWeight value. The overlapping holdings count and directional percentages (sourceAlsoInTargetPercent and targetAlsoInSourcePercent) are presented as provided in the dataset and are not recalculated. A higher overlap by portfolio weight indicates that shared holdings account for a larger portion of both portfolios, but it does not imply the ETFs are interchangeable. Only the links included in the supplied data are displayed; missing connections should not be interpreted as zero overlap.
