Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

AVLVAAvantis U.S. Large Cap Value ETF

EPSVDHarbor SMID Cap Value ETF (EPSV)

In short

AVLV No data

EPSV A 2025-vintage Harbor fund that hunts value down the market-cap ladder: roughly 60 small- and mid-cap US names, actively picked, in a corner of the market dominated by cheap large-cap index screens.

Stated mandate

AVLV No data

EPSV The Fund seeks long-term total return by investing principally in common stocks and other equity securities of U.S. small- and mid-capitalization companies. Normally, at least 80% of net assets plus investment borrowings is invested in smid-cap securities regarded as value stocks.

Why people hold it

AVLV No data

  • EPSV Concentrated by design: roughly 60 stocks, not the several hundred a broad value index sweeps up. Every holding actually moves the needle.
  • Fishes below where most value ETFs cast. The prospectus commits at least 80% of net assets to small- and mid-cap stocks the manager reads as value.
  • Truth in labeling: the portfolio it runs is the US smid value portfolio it advertises, not a large-cap book wearing a value badge.

Worth knowing

AVLV No data

  • EPSV 0.88% a year is active-manager pricing. Index-built value peers like AVMV charge 0.20%, so the stock picking carries a real cost hurdle.
  • Launched in 2025, small, and thinly traded. Short record to judge on, and light volume can mean wider spreads getting in and out.
  • Payouts land once or twice a year. This is built for total return, not a steady income stream.
