XHB - SPDR S&P Homebuilders - Stock & Dividends

The SPDR S&P Homebuilders ETF (XHB) is an exchange-traded fund that aims to replicate the performance of the S&P Homebuilders Select Industry Index. To achieve this, the fund uses a sampling strategy, investing at least 80% of its total assets in the securities that make up the index.

The S&P Homebuilders Select Industry Index is a subset of the broader S&P Total Market Index (S&P TMI), focusing specifically on the homebuilders segment. This means the fund provides exposure to companies involved in the construction and sale of residential homes, as well as related industries such as building materials and home improvement.

By tracking the performance of the S&P Homebuilders Select Industry Index, the XHB ETF offers investors a way to tap into the US homebuilding industry, which can be influenced by factors such as interest rates, housing demand, and economic growth.

The fund is listed on the NYSE Arca exchange and is managed by State Street Global Advisors, a leading asset management firm. You can find more information about the fund on the State Street Global Advisors website at http://www.spdrs.com.

As a US-domiciled fund, the XHB ETF is subject to the regulatory framework of the United States and is designed to provide investors with a convenient way to gain exposure to the US homebuilders sector.
