MGK and CSPX: what people ask

questions6 answered

How much do MGK and CSPX overlap?

52% by weight, as of September 30, 2026: heavy overlap. 50 companies appear in both funds; they make up 99% of MGK and 52% of CSPX.

Which stocks do MGK and CSPX both hold?

The largest shared positions are NVDA, AAPL, MSFT, AMZN and GOOGL. Ranked by the smaller of the two weights, which is the part you would own twice.

Is it redundant to hold both MGK and CSPX?

Out of every $100 split evenly between them, about $52 (half in each fund) buys identical positions. The rest is exposure only one of the two funds gives you: 2 names only in MGK, 454 only in CSPX. Half in each behaves like 26 equally weighted stocks, against 17 for MGK alone and 44 for CSPX alone. Whether that duplication is a problem depends on the mix you want; this is a description, not advice.

Is CSPX the European version of MGK?

Partly: 52% of the money in CSPX and MGK is the same, as of September 30, 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 MGK to retail clients, because those funds publish no KID (the PRIIPs key information document); UCITS funds do.

Does the MGK 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 MGK vs SXR8 also overlaps 52%.

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 Vanguard and 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.
