Our read on SMRI
CBushido runs a hands-on value book: fundamental stock picking that mixes quantitative screens with human judgment, in a corner of the market dominated by cheap rules-based factor products. Concentrated by design, and priced like the active fund it is.
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.
Why people hold it
- Genuinely active, not an index in disguise: a fundamental value approach combining quantitative and qualitative analysis, run by sub-adviser Sepio Capital.etfarchitect.com
- Concentrated by design: a few dozen U.S. listed stocks rather than a sprawling factor sweep, so individual picks carry real weight in the portfolio.etfarchitect.comstockanalysis.com
- The portfolio matches the label closely: at least 80% in U.S. listed common stock, selected on profitability, quality and value. Income is paid quarterly.etfarchitect.com
Worth knowing
- 0.72% a year, above the 0.55% median for U.S. value peers and multiples of systematic options like AVLV (0.15%) and DFLV (0.21%). Active judgment is the thing you're paying for.
- Thinly traded. Limit orders and mid-session fills matter more here than with the household-name value funds.
- No industry concentration on paper, but the stock selection process can leave the book leaning on a small number of sectors, and those sectors shift over time.etfarchitect.com
