What this ETF is trying to do

The Eagle Capital Select Equity ETF (EAGL) is an exchange-traded fund that invests in a selection of companies. Based on its top holdings, it focuses on large companies across different industries, including technology, healthcare, and finance.

What the numbers show

As of October 9, 2026, the share price for EAGL was $35.38.

When looking at performance, there are two different ways to measure returns:

• Price Return: This measures only the change in the share price. The one-year price return was 11.61%, and the year-to-date (YTD) price return was 9.00%.

• Total Return: This reflects the overall return, including distributions. The one-year total return was 12.22%, and the YTD total return was 9.00%.

To put this in perspective, the estimated price from roughly one year ago was $31.70. If an investor had put $10,000 into the fund based on that estimated price, the price-only increase would be worth approximately $1,161.

Income and distribution explanation

This ETF provides cash distributions to investors, but they happen irregularly. In the last 12 months, there was only one payout. The distribution yield is 0.50%.

It is important for beginners to remember that a distribution yield is not the same as a total return. While distributions provide cash income, they do not guarantee that the original investment value will stay the same.

NAV erosion explanation

"NAV erosion" happens when the actual value of the assets inside a fund drops over time. StockValueFinder uses an erosion-risk score to measure this. EAGL has an erosion score of 100, and the erosion severity is labeled as "good." No price erosion was detected, and there is no severe erosion-risk flag for this fund.

Top Holdings

The fund holds 28 different assets. Because the list is partial, we only see the largest ones. As of October 4, 2026, the top holdings included:

• Amazon.com Inc: 9.1%

• MercadoLibre Inc: 7.0%

• Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd ADR: 6.5%

• London Stock Exchange Group PLC ADR: 6.07%

• UnitedHealth Group Inc: 5.8%

Pros

• Positive price and total returns over the last year.

• No detected NAV erosion risk.

• Diversified across several large, well-known companies.

Cons

• Very low distribution yield.

• Irregular payout schedule, meaning cash income is not consistent.

Beginner takeaway

EAGL is a fund that has seen its share price grow over the past year. While it does pay out some cash, the yield is low and the timing is irregular. It is designed more for price growth than for steady income.
