What this fund is
Objective, as filed

State Street Communication Services Select Sector SPDR ETF (the Fund) seeks to provide investment results that, before expenses, correspond generally to the price and yield performance of publicly traded equity securities of companies in the Communication Services Select Sector Index (the Index).

Strategy, summarised

The fund holds substantially all securities in the Communication Services Select Sector Index, which comprises 23 large-cap U.S. companies classified by the Global Industry Classification Standard as communication services firms—including telecommunications, media, entertainment, and interactive media businesses. The fund tracks the index through replication, investing at least 95% of assets in index constituents in their index weights. Because the fund holds all index securities, its performance will track the index before expenses.

What the fund is made of

Percentages are of fund net assets. Rounding, liabilities and short positions can make totals differ from 100%.

Derivatives-0.01%

The outer band is exposure held short — written against the portfolio rather than part of it, which is why it sits outside the ring and why the two are never netted into one figure.

Derivatives are shown at market value, not notional exposure.

Volatility over the last 12 months: 14.38%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.

May 2026 and Jun 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
