FSTA is one of ten Fidelity ETFs that track MSCI sector indexes. The fund offers exposure to the consumer staples sector as defined by the GICS sector classification scheme. Like competitor VDC, FSTA tracks an index that uses GICS to define sectors, then selects and weights the stocks by market-cap. To meet diversification requirements, the funds underlying index employs a capping methodology, such that no group entity exceeds 25% of index weight and the aggregate weight of issuers with over 5% weight in the index are capped at 50% weight of the portfolio. Prior to December 1, 2020, FSTA tracked the unconstrained MSCI USA IMI Consumer Staples Index.
