About this ETF
The State Street SPDR S&P Metals & Mining ETF (XME) seeks to deliver investment results that accurately reflect the total return performance of the S&P Metals and Mining Select Industry Index, prior to factoring in any fees and expenses. This fund provides targeted exposure to the crucial metals and mining segment of the S&P Total Market Index (TMI). Its holdings span a comprehensive list of sub-industries, including Aluminum, Coal & Consumable Fuels, Copper, Diversified Metals & Mining, Gold, Precious Metals & Minerals, Silver, and Steel. XME tracks a modified equal-weighted index, a design choice that aims to prevent overconcentration in any single company or sub-industry. This approach ensures a balanced representation across large, mid, and small-capitalization stocks within the sector. Ultimately, this ETF enables investors to adopt either strategic or tactical positions within the metals and mining space with a greater degree of specificity compared to broader, more general sector-based investment vehicles.

Latest News for XME
No articles mention this fund directly in the last 7 days — showing general ETF coverage.
Guided help: AUM is fund size. The expense ratio is the yearly cost baked into returns. NAV is the value of what the fund owns per share; the market price can sit slightly above (premium) or below (discount) it. Total return assumes distributions were reinvested. Every dataset shows its own as-of date because holdings, assets and quotes update on different schedules.
