Our read on DHLX
CTwenty-ish US large caps, picked one at a time. Diamond Hill's ETF runs a concentrated value book measured against the Russell 1000 Value Index, which means it deliberately looks nothing like that index.
The ETF seeks long-term capital appreciation. Under normal conditions, it invests at least 80% of net assets in U.S. equity securities of large-cap companies the adviser believes are undervalued, in a concentrated portfolio of approximately 20–30 securities.
Why people hold it
- A genuinely concentrated book: roughly 20 to 30 US large caps the adviser judges undervalued, with at least 80% of assets in that mandate. No closet indexing here.diamond-hill.com
- Runs Diamond Hill's house intrinsic-value process: model years of a business's future cash flows, estimate what it is worth, then buy at a discount to that number.jpmorgan.comsec.gov
- At 0.55% a year it undercuts several active rivals benchmarked to the same index (BUSA, OAKM, PZLV) and sits at the median for its active value cohort.
- Pays distributions quarterly, and the mandate is US equity only, so there is no currency layer or foreign withholding in the mix.
Worth knowing
- Systematic value peers cost a fraction of this: AVLV 0.15%, DFLV 0.21%, WTV 0.12%. The stock picking has to carry that fee gap.
- Concentration cuts both ways. In a non-diversified book of 20 to 30 names, one company's stumble lands with real weight.diamond-hill.com
- Launched in September 2025, so the ETF's own record is short, the asset base is small and trading is moderate rather than deep.
