Our read on GSUS

ETF.net Research

In short

AGoldman's no-frills core: one index covering the largest 85% of the US market by free float, about 400 large and mid caps, at 0.07% net of a waiver through December 29, 2026.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the performance of its underlying U.S. large- and mid-cap equity index.

Why people hold it

  • Costs 0.07% net of a waiver through December 29, 2026 (0.09% gross), undercutting Goldman's own GUSA at 0.10% and the Alpha Architect pair, AAEQ and AAUA, at 0.09% each.gs.com
  • Nothing clever under the hood: it holds the index's stocks at free-float market-cap weights, and it has tracked that index very closely, among the tightest in its peer group.sec.gov
  • A billion-dollar-plus fund that trades in reasonable volume, with a quarterly distribution schedule.

Worth knowing

  • The index stops at roughly the largest 85% of US free float, so small caps sit outside it. Not a total-market holding.sec.gov
  • The 0.07% sits near the category's typical fee, not at the floor: ILCB charges 0.03% with no waiver attached. And GSUS reverts to 0.09% if its waiver lapses on December 29, 2026.
  • Free-float weighting means the biggest US companies dominate the top of the portfolio, by design.sec.gov
