AVLCAAvantis U.S. Large Cap Equity ETF

FLCEDFrontier Asset U.S. Large Cap Equity ETF

In short

AVLC Active management with index-fund manners: roughly 900 U.S. large caps, with the dial turned toward cheaper, more profitable companies. Avantis charges 0.15% a year to do it.

FLCE No data

Stated mandate

AVLC The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation. It invests broadly in U.S. large-capitalization companies while using active decisions to overweight lower valuations and higher profitability.

FLCE No data

Why people hold it

  • AVLC 0.15% a year against a 0.65% median for active U.S. equity funds. That is passive-style pricing on an actively run book.
  • Holds about 900 names against the Russell 1000, so the value and profitability tilts sit on top of broad market exposure instead of a concentrated bet.avantisinvestors.com
  • One of the stronger builds in the active U.S. equity group, priced in the same neighborhood as the Dimensional core funds (DFAU, DFAC) it competes with.
  • A multi-billion-dollar fund that trades steadily, so spreads and liquidity are rarely the sticking point. Distributions are paid quarterly.

FLCE No data

Worth knowing

  • AVLC Launched in 2023. The tilt philosophy is well worn at Avantis, but this fund's own live record is still short.
  • Active, not index-tracking. The Russell 1000 is a reference point, not a leash, so holdings and weights can drift from it.
  • Leaning toward cheaper, higher-profitability companies means stretches where it moves differently from the plain cap-weighted market, in either direction.avantisinvestors.com
