AVDEAAvantis International Equity ETF

PIZCInvesco Dorsey Wright Developed Markets Momentum ETF

In short

AVDE Active management at almost-index prices: Avantis runs roughly 3,300 developed-market stocks outside the US without tracking a benchmark, for 0.23% a year. One of the strongest implementations in its active international peer group.

PIZ Momentum with a passport. PIZ ranks non-US developed-market stocks on relative strength and rebuilds around 100 winners each quarter. Same rulebook since 2007, one of the longest-running international momentum sleeves.

Stated mandate

AVDE Invests in a broad range of stocks of all sizes across non-U.S. developed countries, with active portfolio management rather than replication of a specified index.

PIZ The Fund seeks developed-market equity exposure through the Dorsey Wright® Developed Markets Tech Leaders Index and generally invests at least 90% of assets in securities from developed economies.

Why people hold it

  • AVDE 0.23% a year, well under half the typical fee in its active international peer group. Active management usually costs more than this.
  • Index-like breadth without an index: about 3,300 stocks of all sizes across non-US developed countries, chosen by managers rather than copied from a benchmark.avantisinvestors.com
  • A multi-billion-dollar fund that trades actively, so getting in and out tends to be cheap and easy. It pays out quarterly.
  • Sits at the top of a crowded field alongside rivals like DFIC and JIRE, priced within a basis point or two of both.
  • PIZ The screen is the whole product: roughly 100 developed-market large caps picked for relative strength, then rebalanced and reconstituted every quarter.nasdaq.cominvesco.com
  • Genuinely ex-US by construction. The index leaves out US companies listed on US exchanges, so it doesn't quietly re-buy the megacaps most portfolios already hold.invesco.com
  • Trading since December 2007 on a published rulebook, with at least 90% of assets in developed-economy securities plus ADRs and GDRs, and distributions paid quarterly.invesco.com

Worth knowing

  • AVDE Developed markets only. Emerging markets are a separate purchase if you want them.
  • No index to grade the manager against, so results come down to Avantis's own portfolio calls rather than a published benchmark.
  • It is all-equity and all-foreign: stock market swings plus currency moves both show up in the price.
  • PIZ At 0.80% a year it sits well above the typical fund in its international-equity group, where core builds like DFIC (0.22%) and AVDE (0.23%) anchor the cheap end.
  • About 100 names reshuffled four times a year means real turnover and whatever country and sector tilts the screen throws up. It can look nothing like a broad index.invesco.com
  • Relative strength buys what has already moved, and the roster resets only at quarter-end, so abrupt shifts in market leadership are the trade-off baked into the method.nasdaq.cominvesco.com
