Our read on MODL

ETF.net Research

In short

AMost active US equity funds argue about stocks. MODL argues about sectors: WestEnd's macro team owns four to six economic sectors at a time, names the ones it won't touch, and caps any single sector at 35% at purchase.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

Why people hold it

  • The rules are spelled out: four to six economic sectors at any given time, none above 35% of net assets at the time of purchase. You know the concentration ceiling before you own it.vcm.com
  • The distinctive move is the avoidance list. WestEnd names the sectors it sees facing the biggest headwinds and simply doesn't hold them, rather than owning a little of everything.vcm.com
  • 0.49% a year for an actively rotated sector strategy, below the 0.65% typical of active US equity funds. Cheap is not the usual adjective for macro-driven allocation.
  • A billion-dollar-plus fund that distributes monthly, and it sits in the upper tier of a crowded active US equity field on our review.

Worth knowing

  • Sector calls are the entire engine. Concentrating in a handful of sectors can mean sharper swings than a broadly diversified US portfolio, in either direction.vcm.com
  • Cheap for active, not cheap outright: strong peers like DFAU (0.12%) and AVLC (0.15%) deliver broad US equity for a fraction of the fee.
  • Launched in 2022, so the ETF's own live record is short next to the multi-decade histories of the index funds it competes with.
