Our read on ILCV

ETF.net Research

In short

AValue done the thorough way: roughly 400 large- and mid-cap US stocks screened on five separate value measures, not just cheap book value. Running since 2004 at four basis points, it's one of the cheapest tickets into the value factor.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks to track an index of U.S. large- and mid-cap stocks selected with value-oriented measures including forward earnings, book value, sales, cash flow, and dividend yield.

Why people hold it

  • Charges 0.04% a year against a 0.32% median for its factor peer group. Undercuts well-regarded rivals like VONV (0.06%) and FNDX (0.25%).
  • Value gets defined five ways: forward earnings, book value, sales, cash flow and dividend yield. Wider lens than a single price-to-book screen.ishares.com
  • Spreads the bet across about 400 large- and mid-cap names and distributes quarterly.
  • Trading since 2004 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, it ranks among the strongest implementations in its factor cohort.

Worth knowing

  • One of the quieter tickers in its category. Thin volume means spreads matter more here than on a mega-cap index fund, and limit orders are the usual tool.
  • Value-only by design. It skips the market's priciest growth leaders, so it moves differently from a total-market fund in both directions.ishares.com
  • Large and mid caps only. Small-cap value sits outside the mandate.
