Closelooknet rankings · Inside the ETFs
Where the disagreement was in the last session
The covered funds ranked by how far apart their members’ returns were in the last session — single-day disagreement, largest first.
The same measure over just the last session: which funds’ members disagreed the most in one day. A quiet index day with high one-day dispersion somewhere means a rotation happened inside that theme — the kind of move the headline number never shows.

Dispersion = spread of member returns, in percentage points. Median member = the typical holding’s return. A/D 90d = the fund’s cumulative advance/decline line over the last 90 sessions — rising means most members participate, falling means the shell hides internal decline. Up/down counts members in the last session; beat/lag counts members ahead of or behind the fund itself over 21 days. All 40 covered funds are shown — both ends of the table are the story.

FAQ
What does dispersion mean here?
How far apart the returns of a fund’s members are over a window, in percentage points. High dispersion means the members disagree — big winners and big losers behind one headline number. Low dispersion means the fund is moving as one block.
Why does internal disagreement matter?
Two funds can print the same return for opposite reasons: one carried by a couple of heavyweights while the rest falls, the other lifted by nearly every member. The first is fragile, the second is broad. Dispersion and the median member separate those two cases.
How often is this ranking updated?
The dispersion engine runs after every US market close across the covered funds and Closelooknet indices. This page is rebuilt every morning and always shows the date of the run it was built from.
