Description: XLP Consumer Staples Sector October 30, 2025

The Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR® Fund (NYSE ARCA:XLP) seeks to replicate the performance of the Consumer Staples Select Sector Index by investing at least 95 % of its assets in the index’s constituents. The fund is classified as a non-diversified U.S. ETF within the Consumer Defensive category.

Key metrics as of the latest filing show an expense ratio of 0.12 % and assets under management of roughly $30 billion, with the top holdings dominated by megacap names such as Procter & Gamble, Coca-Cola, and Walmart, which together account for over 30 % of the portfolio. The sector’s performance is tightly linked to consumer confidence and real disposable income, while inflation-adjusted pricing power and low price elasticity of demand tend to buffer earnings during economic downturns.
