Our read on INVN

ETF.net Research

In short

BMost innovation funds buy the story. INVN buys the R&D line: it ranks Russell 1000 companies by research spending against enterprise value, screens for profitability first, then equal-weights the top 50 and re-sorts every quarter.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Alger Russell Innovation Index.

Why people hold it

  • Innovation defined by an accounting line rather than a narrative: the index picks the 50 Russell 1000 names with the highest research spending relative to enterprise value, plus other factors.prnewswire.com
  • A profitability screen runs before the innovation ranking, so the basket leans toward companies funding their R&D out of a real business.
  • Equal weighting at each quarterly review gives the 50th name roughly the same say as the first, so no mega-cap sits on the portfolio.prnewswire.com
  • At 0.55%, the fee sits below the typical fund in its disruptive-innovation peer group.

Worth knowing

  • That 0.55% is a capped rate. Gross fund expenses run higher and the waiver is contractual with an end date, so the current prospectus is the place to check it.sec.gov
  • Cheaper ways to own the theme exist: KOMP charges 0.20% and XT 0.46%.
  • It launched in January 2025, so the track record is short, and a 50-stock book rebuilt every quarter concentrates risk and shuffles holdings more than a broad index fund.prnewswire.com
