State Street Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR ETF(AMEX:XLY)

XLY is a portfolio of US large-cap consumer-discretionary stocks. XLY's basket of stocks represents the sector well, despite concentration in the largest names. As a part of the Select Sector SPDR suite, the fund pulls its holdings from the S&P 500, which differs from the broad-market universe used by competing funds in that it excludes small-caps and most midcaps. The resulting basket contains just a fraction of the names held by our more diverse benchmark, however, industry biases are small and XLY tends to provide market performance. The fund's average market cap is higher than our benchmarks, but overall XLY provides solid exposure.
