Our read on AVIE

ETF.net Research

In short

AMost inflation plays reach for commodities or TIPS. Avantis reaches for stocks: roughly 400 US companies, screened on profitability and value, picked for their expected ability to benefit when inflation rises.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation through primarily U.S. equity investments selected for their expected ability to benefit when inflation rises or is expected to rise.

Why people hold it

  • Costs 0.25% a year while the typical active US equity fund in its peer group runs about 0.65%. Cheap for an actively managed, purpose-built portfolio.
  • The inflation exposure comes from operating businesses, not futures contracts: a primarily US equity portfolio of roughly 400 names.
  • Avantis keeps its house discipline on top of the theme, tilting toward companies with higher profitability at lower prices rather than buying the inflation story at any valuation.
  • Sits in the top quartile of a 234-fund active US equity cohort on our review, and pays quarterly.

Worth knowing

  • Small asset base and thin trading. Spreads can run wider than on big index funds, and that matters more on large or hurried orders.
  • A portfolio built around inflation sensitivity is not a broad-market portfolio. Expect sector weights and results that wander from the S&P 500 in both directions.
  • Active, with no published index to check it against, and a track record that only starts in 2022. Avantis' plain large-cap fund AVLC charges 0.15% if you'd rather skip the theme.
