Our read on RAUS
BResearch Affiliates made its name arguing that traditional cap-weighted indexes are flawed. RAUS is its cap-weighted fund. The twist: company fundamentals decide which stocks get in, and only then does market cap decide how big each position is.
The fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the total return of the Research Affiliates Cap-Weighted US Index.
Why people hold it
- Membership is set by four fundamental yardsticks (adjusted sales, adjusted cash flow, dividends plus buybacks, book value plus intangibles), not by which stocks have run up the most.rafi.comrafietfs.com
- Once names are selected, plain market-cap weighting takes over, the design that keeps turnover low and capacity high in mainstream index funds.rafietfs.combusinesswire.com
- 0.15% a year, under the median fee in its US value peer group, for a rules-based index tracker rather than a manager's stock picks.
Worth knowing
- Launched in 2025 and still a small, thinly traded fund, so the record is short and spreads can run wider than the category's giants.
- It files under the value banner, but the stated aim is market-like exposure, not a hard tilt toward the cheapest corners of the market.rafietfs.com
- The bargain shelf is cheaper: VTV charges 0.03% and SCHV 0.04% for conventional large-cap value, so this methodology carries a small premium.
