Our read on EUSA
AEqual weight, iShares style: each of roughly 500 large and mid cap US stocks gets the same slice, so the megacaps stop running the show. Around since 2010 and priced at 0.09%, less than half what the typical equal-weight fund charges.
The fund seeks to track an index composed of equally weighted U.S. stocks.
Why people hold it
- 0.09% a year against a 0.20% median for equal-weight US funds, and nothing in the peer group undercuts it (GSEW matches).
- Every holding gets the same slice, about 500 of them, so no handful of giants sets the tone the way it does in a cap-weighted US index.ishares.com
- Live since 2010, a multi-billion-dollar fund, and it has hugged the MSCI USA Equal Weighted Index closely, one of the tightest jobs in its peer group.
Worth knowing
- Equal weighting tilts the portfolio toward mid caps, so its path can diverge widely from a standard cap-weighted US index in either direction.
- Moderately traded rather than a category volume leader, so spreads and execution deserve attention on larger orders.
- Income arrives quarterly, not monthly.
