Our read on TPSC
CSmall caps run through two filters at once: a biblically responsible screen, and volatility weighting that sizes each holding by how much the stock moves rather than how big the company is.
The Fund seeks to match, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Victory US Small Cap Volatility Weighted BRI Index.
Why people hold it
- The index weights by volatility instead of market cap, so the jumpiest names get the smallest slots. A different shape of small cap exposure than a cap-weighted fund.
- The faith screen lives in the index rules, not a manager's judgment: the fund's job is to match the Victory US Small Cap Volatility Weighted BRI Index before fees and expenses.
- At 0.52%, it charges the median fee for its US small cap peer group, and it pays distributions monthly.
- Live since 2019 and one of the stronger implementations in its small cap peer group on our review, with no structural red flags in the wrapper.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded next to the giants of the category, so bid-ask spreads can run wider, particularly in fast markets.
- Broad small cap rivals AVUV and AVSC charge 0.25%, under half this fund's 0.52%.
- Values screens plus volatility weighting mean the portfolio can look and behave quite differently from a standard cap-weighted small cap index. Matching one isn't the goal.
