Our read on USFE

ETF.net Research

CFirst Eagle built its name buying resilient businesses only at a discount to what they are worth. USFE puts that margin-of-safety discipline on US stocks, priced below most active rivals.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks long-term growth of capital.

Why people hold it

  1. 01Costs 0.45% a year, well under the 0.65% median for active US equity funds in its peer group. Cheap freight for a stockpicker.
  2. 02Runs First Eagle's signature playbook: resilient companies with strong balance sheets and prudent management, bought only at a "margin of safety" to estimated intrinsic value.firsteagle.com
  3. 03A fully active, transparent 1940 Act fund whose stated goal is long-term growth of capital, extending an ETF lineup the firm started in late 2024.firsteagle.com

Worth knowing

  1. 01Launched in 2026, still small and thinly traded. Little live history to judge, and spreads can run wider than on a big index fund.
  2. 02The 0.45% is net of a contractual expense cap; the stated management fee is 0.79%. Check the current prospectus for how long the waiver runs.sec.govsec.gov
  3. 03Broad rivals like DFAU (0.12%) and AVLC (0.15%) cost a third as much. Here you pay for stockpicking and a value tilt that moves differently from the market.
