Our read on HDUS
BA core US large-cap holding with a factor engine under the hood: Hartford's own index rules tilt toward value, momentum and quality while leashing how far the portfolio can drift from the cap-weighted market.
The fund seeks investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to the total return of an index tracking exchange-traded U.S. large-cap equity securities.
Why people hold it
- Rules-based multifactor selection across value, momentum and quality, run through an optimizer that targets a lower volatility level and controlled drift from the cap-weighted universe.hartfordfunds.com
- Built in-house: the index methodology comes from Lattice Strategies, a Hartford Funds subsidiary, and the portfolio is reshuffled on a set schedule twice a year rather than at a manager's whim.hartfordfunds.cometfexpress.com
- Spreads the bet across roughly 300 US large caps and pays quarterly, and it does what the prospectus says it does: US large-cap equity, index-tracked, no style wandering.
- Lands in the upper half of a two-dozen-fund US large-cap peer group, which is respectable company for a smart-beta build competing against plain vanilla trackers.
Worth knowing
- 0.19% a year is above the typical fee in its large-cap group and several times the 0.03% charged by plain cap-weighted rivals like SCHX and VV. That is the toll for the factor machinery.
- Small asset base and light trading versus the household-name trackers, so spreads and order size matter more here than with the giants.
- The factor tilts mean it can diverge from a plain cap-weighted large-cap index in either direction, and the live record only dates to its 2022 launch.hartfordfunds.com
