About XRT valuation

Adding up its 73 holdings with company data, XRT trades at 22.0 times trailing earnings and 12.6 times analysts' forward estimates, with a price-to-book ratio of 2.47 and a dividend yield of 1.19%. Its earnings yield of 4.54% is 0.79 percentage points below the 5.33% yield to maturity of the U.S. bond market (AGG).

The ten largest holdings are 16.9% of the fund and earn 9.9% of its combined profit. By sector, Healthcare is the most expensive at 389.0 times earnings and Technology the cheapest at 10.6. Companies that lost money over the past year are 9.5% of the covered weight.

How these figures are calculated. Each ratio treats the fund as one company: the earnings, sales and book value of every holding are added up in proportion to its weight and divided into the fund's price. In practice that is a weighted harmonic mean, so a single stock with a very high P/E cannot distort the result, and loss-making companies reduce the fund's earnings instead of being dropped. Covers 98.8% of the fund's weight (U.S.-listed stocks with company data); company figures as of October 26, 2026.
