BGUSCBaillie Gifford U.S. Equity Growth ETF

LRGCAAB US Large Cap Strategic Equities ETF

In short

BGUS No data

LRGC AB's stock pickers in an ETF wrapper: roughly 70 large-cap US names picked with fundamental research plus quant screens, measured against the S&P 500. Active conviction, priced under the typical active peer.

Stated mandate

BGUS No data

LRGC The Fund seeks long-term growth of capital. It is actively managed and normally invests at least 80% of net assets in equities of large-capitalization U.S. companies.

Why people hold it

BGUS No data

  • LRGC Roughly 70 holdings against a 500-stock yardstick, with quality and value screens doing the filtering. Each name actually carries weight.
  • 0.39% a year sits below the median fee in its active large-cap group, so the manager isn't digging out of a deep cost hole.
  • One of the stronger implementations among the actively managed US large-cap funds we track, with a plain mandate: at least 80% of net assets in large-cap US equities.
  • Launched in 2023 on one of AB's core US equity strategies, with Jane Street signed on as lead market maker from day one.prnewswire.com

Worth knowing

BGUS No data

  • LRGC At 0.39%, it costs more than cheaper enhanced-index rivals in the same group, such as JUSA at 0.12% and GUSE at 0.30%.
  • Outcomes ride on the team's judgment, not an index rulebook, and about 70 positions concentrate those calls.
  • It trades lightly next to the big index names, so spreads can run wider, especially in fast markets.
