AESL—Harbor AlphaEdge Small Cap Value ETF

IUSVAiShares Core S&P U.S. Value ETF

In short

AESL No data

IUSV A value fund with a wider net: it tracks the S&P 900 Value Index, which screens S&P 500 and MidCap 400 stocks on book value, earnings and sales versus price. Roughly 700 names, 0.04% a year, running since 2000.

Stated mandate

AESL No data

IUSV The fund seeks to track the S&P 900 Value Index, which represents large- and mid-capitalization U.S. value equities. Value characteristics are identified using book value, earnings, and sales relative to price.

Why people hold it

AESL No data

IUSV Costs 0.04% a year, a fraction of the typical US value ETF, and level with the cheapest of its large peers like SCHV.
The index reaches past the S&P 500 into the S&P MidCap 400, so mid-cap value names come along. Large-cap-only rivals such as SCHV stop short of them.spindices.com
A 2000 vintage and now a multi-billion-dollar iShares Core holding: it trades actively, tracks its index closely, and pays quarterly.

Worth knowing

AESL No data

IUSV S&P's style system splits the parent index by formula, and stocks with both value and growth traits can sit in each. This is the cheap half of the market, not a deep-value sleeve.spglobal.com spglobal.com 2
The screen is pure price ratios (book value, earnings, sales), with no profitability or quality filter, so cheap-for-a-reason names are part of the deal.spglobal.com
Holdings are float-market-cap weighted, so the biggest value names drive most of the movement.spglobal.com
