Is CSPX the European version of ITOT?
Partly: 89% of the money in CSPX and ITOT is the same, as of October 14, 2026. CSPX is iShares Core S&P 500 UCITS ETF (ISIN IE00B5BMR087), an Irish-domiciled UCITS fund on the S&P 500 index. European brokers generally don't sell US-listed ETFs such as ITOT to retail clients, because those funds publish no KID (the PRIIPs key information document); UCITS funds do.
Does the ITOT vs CSPX overlap apply to other tickers?
Yes. CSPX also trades as CSP1 (London, GBP), SXR8 (Xetra, EUR) and CSSPX (Borsa Italiana, EUR). Each is the same portfolio in another currency, on another exchange or paying its dividends out, so ITOT vs SXR8 also overlaps 89%.
How is ETF overlap calculated here?
For every company held by both funds we take the smaller of its two weights and add them up. The weights come from the full holdings files iShares publish, not a top-10 sample, and companies are matched by their ISIN so share classes stay apart. Sector overlap applies the same rule to the issuers' sector labels; "behaves like N equally weighted stocks" is one over the sum of the squared weights.
Weights come from each issuer's published holdings file and are matched company by company on their ISIN. Cash, futures and currency positions are left out. This page describes what the funds hold; it is not investment advice.
