Our read on ILCB
AA 2004-vintage index fund that owns roughly 500 large and mid-cap US stocks for three basis points. Broad core coverage minus the small-cap tail, priced well under most of its peer group.
The Fund seeks to track the investment results of the Morningstar US Large-Mid Cap Index, which represents large- and mid-capitalization U.S. stocks.
Why people hold it
- Three basis points a year, against a 0.20% median across its peer group. GUSA, the next-cheapest of that group's top scorers, charges 0.10%.
- The job is plain: mirror the Morningstar US Large-Mid Cap Index. It has stayed tight to that benchmark, one of the stronger implementations in its cohort.ishares.com
- One ticker, about 500 large and mid-cap US companies, quarterly distributions. Core equity coverage in a single line item.
- Trading since 2004 under BlackRock's iShares roof, now a multi-billion-dollar fund. Two decades of operating history behind the ticker.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded for its size. Spreads can run wider than at the category's household-name giants, so order type and timing carry more weight here.
- Large and mid caps only. The small-cap slice of the US market sits outside this mandate.
- The portfolio is the least distinctive part of the package: more weight sits in the biggest positions than a 500-name count suggests.
