Our read on MFVL

ETF.net Research

In short

DMotley Fool's stock-picking brand, boiled down to a rules-based value index. It opened in December 2025 at 0.50% a year, well above the value-ETF norm, and its record starts from scratch.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks investment results corresponding generally to the total-return performance of the Motley Fool Value Index.

Why people hold it

  • The mandate fits on a napkin: track the Motley Fool Value Index. One factor, value, stated on the tin, with no blended-style small print to decode.
  • The Fool's value view arrives as a named, published index rather than a manager's discretion, so the holdings follow a written screen you can look up.

Worth knowing

  • At 0.50% a year, it costs multiples of the cohort's cheap giants: VTV charges 0.03% and SCHV 0.04% for large-cap value exposure.
  • It launched in December 2025, so there is no multi-year record and no full market cycle showing how the screen behaves.
  • Assets are small and trading is light, which can mean wider bid-ask spreads than the household names in the same category.
