About XLK
XLK belongs to the Select Sector SPDR Funds, a range that splits the S&P 500 into its eleven sectors. Each fund holds only the companies of one sector from the S&P 500. XLK covers information technology and therefore contains only large US corporations, around 70 stocks.
That sets XLK apart from VGT, which also holds mid-sized and small technology companies. Because the big names dominate the sector anyway, the two funds are still similar by weight; the comparison in the figures section quantifies the overlap.
XLK is subject to the same diversification rules as all US funds. Since a few companies make up a very large part of the sector, the index has to cap weights. The method has been adjusted several times. In earlier years it meant that a rebalancing could shift large amounts from one of the biggest stocks to another, depending on which happened to be slightly ahead.
Sector funds are used heavily by institutional investors who want to overweight or underweight industries, so trading volume is high. What counts as technology is set by the GICS classification; large internet platforms and payment processors belong to other sectors and are missing from XLK.
