Our read on FLV
BAn active, roughly 50-stock take on large-cap value: American Century's managers hunt high-dividend U.S. companies with room to raise the payout, and charge less than the typical active value fund to do it.
The fund seeks current income and long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in high-dividend U.S. companies with potential for dividend growth.
Why people hold it
- At 0.42%, it costs less than the typical active U.S. value fund, where the peer median sits at 0.55%. More of the dividend stream stays in the fund.
- Two jobs, one mandate: current income and long-term capital appreciation from high-dividend U.S. companies with dividend growth potential. Distributions run quarterly.
- About 50 holdings, filtered through valuation and quality screens, so cheap on its own doesn't earn a stock a spot.res.americancentury.com
- Sits in the upper tier of a crowded active U.S. value field, one of the stronger implementations among dozens of rivals.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded next to the category's giants. Spreads can be wider, and bigger orders take more care at the point of execution.
- Systematic rivals cost less: AVLV and SEIV at 0.15%, DFLV at 0.21%. The gap is what you pay for a manager's judgment instead of a rules engine.
- It's active, measured against the Russell 1000 Value Index. A 50-stock portfolio can look quite different from that benchmark in either direction.americancentury.com
