Screening Filters

1. Volume > 100,000

   • Purpose: Ensure the securities are actively traded and liquid.
   • Rationale: Defense ETFs can be harder to compare if they are thinly traded. A minimum volume filter helps surface funds that have enough daily trading activity for tighter bid-ask spreads and easier entry/exit.

2. Sector: Utilities, Industrials, Consumer Defensive, Healthcare

   • Purpose: Narrow the search to sectors commonly associated with more defensive, stable market behavior.
   • Rationale: While “defense ETFs” can mean defense/aerospace-specific funds, users often also mean defensive-type investments. These sectors are generally less cyclical and can be used to capture ETFs with a defensive tilt. Industrials is especially relevant because many defense and aerospace companies are classified there.

3. Themes: Defense, Aerospace, Industrials, Defensive

   • Purpose: Target ETFs exposed to military defense, aerospace, and broader defensive positioning.
   • Rationale: This is the most directly relevant filter for the user’s request. “Defense” and “Aerospace” capture ETFs with meaningful exposure to defense contractors and related industries, while “Defensive” broadens the search to funds positioned for resilience in uncertain markets.

4. Stock Position % > 90%

   • Purpose: Favor ETFs that are heavily invested in equities rather than bonds, cash, or other assets.
   • Rationale: If the user is asking for defense ETFs, the screener should focus on equity-based funds where holdings in defense-related stocks make up nearly all of the portfolio. This helps exclude mixed-asset or more generalized funds that are not primarily defense-focused.

Why Results Match:

• The theme filters directly target defense and aerospace exposure, which is the core of the user’s request.
• The sector filters help catch ETFs whose holdings are likely to include defense contractors and related industrial companies.
• The volume filter ensures the ETFs are practical to trade and not obscure or illiquid.
• The stock position filter keeps the screen focused on funds that are mostly equity-based and more likely to behave like true sector ETFs rather than broad or mixed funds.

Overall, these filters work together to identify liquid, equity-heavy ETFs with meaningful exposure to defense and aerospace themes, which is the closest match to “defense ETFs.”
