What this ETF is trying to do

The ISHARES RUSSELL TOP 200 ETF (IWL) is designed to track a specific group of large companies. It focuses on the top 200 companies in the Russell index. This means it invests in some of the largest businesses available on the market.

What the numbers show

The data shows that IWL has experienced significant growth over different time periods. When looking at the share price alone (the price return), here is how it has performed:

• Year-to-Date (YTD) Price Return: Approximately 13.95%

• One-Year Price Return: Approximately 16.04%

• Three-Year Price Return: Approximately 86.58%

It is important to distinguish between "price return" and "total return." Price return only tracks how much the share price moved. Total return includes both the price change and any cash distributions paid out to investors. For IWL, the total returns are slightly higher than the price returns:

• YTD Total Return: Approximately 14.68%

• One-Year Total Return: Approximately 17.09%

• Three-Year Total Return: Approximately 92.46%

Based on an estimated price from roughly one year ago of $167.55, the current price is $194.43.

Income and distribution explanation

IWL provides some cash income through distributions. The distribution yield is approximately 0.82%. This number describes the cash paid out relative to the current ETF price. The fund usually pays these distributions quarterly, with 4 payments recorded over the last 12 months.

While some investors look for high yields, it is important to remember that a distribution yield is not the same as total return.

NAV erosion explanation

"NAV erosion" refers to a decline in the Net Asset Value (the actual value of the assets held by the fund). The supplied data is sufficient to evaluate price erosion, but it does not include enough historical NAV-per-share data to confirm or rule out NAV erosion.

However, looking at price-based evidence, the fund has an erosion score of 100, which is labeled as "No price erosion detected." There is no severe erosion-risk flag for this ETF.

Cons

• The distribution yield is relatively low (0.82%).

Beginner takeaway

IWL focuses on large, well-known companies. It has shown strong growth in both its share price and its total return over the past few years. While it pays a small amount of regular income, most of its performance comes from the increase in share price.
