XOP tax-loss harvesting alternatives

State Street SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production ETF (State Street) tracks S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production Select Industry. If you hold XOP at a loss, these ETFs track a different index, which generally makes them less likely to be considered “substantially identical” — while still moving closely with XOP during the 31-day wait.
