Our read on STNC
DMost ESG funds in this corner are index trackers that own the market minus the offenders. Hennessy's version is actively run: about 70 US large caps chosen by a rules-based sustainability screen, measured against both the S&P 500 and its equal-weight twin.
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation. It is an actively managed ETF investing at least 80% of net assets plus investment borrowings in exchange-traded equity securities of U.S. issuers meeting sustainability and fundamental financial standards.
Why people hold it
- Concentrated by design: roughly 70 US stocks picked by an active manager, not several hundred names inherited from a broad benchmark.
- Does what the prospectus says: at least 80% of assets in US-listed equities that clear both sustainability and fundamental financial standards.
- Measured against the S&P 500 and the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index, so its tilt away from the mega-cap top of the market stays visible.
Worth knowing
- Costs 0.85% a year against a category median near 0.25%. Index-based peers like ESGV (0.09%) and XVV (0.08%) run a fraction of that.
- Trades lightly next to the giant index ESG funds, so bid-ask spreads are a real part of the cost of getting in and out.
- A small fund that pays distributions once or twice a year rather than quarterly.
