Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

AVLVAAvantis U.S. Large Cap Value ETF

MAVFFMatrix Advisors Value ETF

In short

AVLV No data

MAVF A 1996-vintage value strategy wearing an ETF ticker. Matrix picks US stocks by its own definition of cheap, aiming at appreciation and income both. Old-school active work in an aisle now ruled by rules-based screens.

Stated mandate

AVLV No data

MAVF The Fund seeks total return through capital appreciation and current income.

Why people hold it

AVLV No data

  • MAVF Actual stock picking. The portfolio is built on Matrix's own definition of value, not an off-the-shelf index screen, and the fund says so in its prospectus.
  • The strategy dates to 1996, meaning it has run through the dot-com bust, 2008 and everything since. Track records that long are scarce in the value-ETF aisle.
  • Two jobs, stated plainly: capital appreciation and current income. Shareholders get distributions on a set annual or semiannual rhythm.
  • Simple plumbing. A standard 1940 Act US equity fund with no leverage or exotic wrapper mechanics to decode before you own it.

Worth knowing

AVLV No data

  • MAVF The 0.75% expense ratio sits above the typical US value fund's 0.55%, and well above index-built peers like AVLV (0.15%) and WTV (0.12%). Active judgment is the thing you're paying for.
  • Small and thinly traded. Spreads can run wider than at the aisle's giants, and sizable orders can push the price around.
  • In a crowded field of 50-plus US value funds, our review lands it near the back, mostly on cost and trading friction rather than how it follows its mandate.
