Q2 2026 earnings are currently expected to mark the weakest growth rate of the year, with consensus forecasts calling for a gradual improvement during the second half of the year.

FDIS offers broader exposure, better value and slightly superior long-term returns compared to XLY, but has weaker trading volumes. Both FDIS and XLY carry high concentration risk in Amazon and Tesla, with the top 10 holdings comprising nearly 60% of FDIS.
