ABLDDAbacus FCF Real Assets Leaders ETF

ILCVAiShares Morningstar Value ETF

In short

ABLD Free cash flow screening pointed at hard assets: US real asset companies filtered for the cash they actually generate. A niche twist in a peer group stuffed with broad, cheap value funds.

ILCV Value done the thorough way: roughly 400 large- and mid-cap US stocks screened on five separate value measures, not just cheap book value. Running since 2004 at four basis points, it's one of the cheapest tickets into the value factor.

Stated mandate

ABLD The Fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Abacus FCF Real Assets Leaders Index.

ILCV The fund seeks to track an index of U.S. large- and mid-cap stocks selected with value-oriented measures including forward earnings, book value, sales, cash flow, and dividend yield.

Why people hold it

  • ABLD The screen is the whole point: an index applies Abacus FCF's free cash flow model to US real asset names, so profitability, not size alone, decides who gets in.cboe.com
  • Rules run it. An index picks the holdings and the fund tracks it, so what you own doesn't hinge on a manager's mood that quarter.
  • Live since 2021, and the index-based strategy survived the 2024 handover, when Donoghue Forlines stepped away and FCF Advisors took over and renamed the fund.sec.gov
  • Cash comes back on a set schedule: the fund distributes quarterly.
  • ILCV Charges 0.04% a year against a 0.32% median for its factor peer group. Undercuts well-regarded rivals like VONV (0.06%) and FNDX (0.25%).
  • Value gets defined five ways: forward earnings, book value, sales, cash flow and dividend yield. Wider lens than a single price-to-book screen.ishares.com
  • Spreads the bet across about 400 large- and mid-cap names and distributes quarterly.
  • Trading since 2004 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, it ranks among the strongest implementations in its factor cohort.

Worth knowing

  • ABLD At 0.39% a year, it costs more than the broad value giants leading its peer group (VONV, VYM). That's the price of a narrower, screened portfolio.
  • It's a small, thinly traded fund, so spreads can widen and how you place an order matters more than it would with a mega-cap index product.
  • Real assets is a slice, not the market. Property, energy and resource-linked companies dominate the universe, so it can move well out of step with a broad US index.cboe.com
  • ILCV One of the quieter tickers in its category. Thin volume means spreads matter more here than on a mega-cap index fund, and limit orders are the usual tool.
  • Value-only by design. It skips the market's priciest growth leaders, so it moves differently from a total-market fund in both directions.ishares.com
  • Large and mid caps only. Small-cap value sits outside the mandate.
