Which stocks do XIU and XEF both hold?

Is it redundant to hold both XIU and XEF?

No. Out of every $100 split evenly between them, none buys the same company. Half in each gives you 2,521 different holdings that behave like 104 equally weighted stocks, against 29 for XIU alone and 267 for XEF alone. Whether that mix suits you depends on what you want to own; this is a description, not advice.

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.
