VT vs CSPX overlap

55% by weight, as of September 30, 2026: heavy overlap. 500 companies appear in both funds; they make up 55% of VT and 100% of CSPX.

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.

Out of every $100 split evenly between them, about $55 (half in each fund) buys identical positions. The rest is exposure only one of the two funds gives you: 9,655 names only in VT, 4 only in CSPX. Half in each behaves like 71 equally weighted stocks, against 128 for VT alone and 44 for CSPX alone. Whether that duplication is a problem depends on the mix you want; this is a description, not advice.

Partly: 55% of the money in CSPX and VT 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 VT to retail clients, because those funds publish no KID (the PRIIPs key information document); UCITS funds do.

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 VT vs SXR8 also overlaps 55%.

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.
