DFLVADimensional US Large Cap Value ETF

PJFVBPGIM Jennison Focused Value ETF

In short

DFLV Dimensional's value playbook in an ETF wrapper: large-cap value that also screens for profitability, spread across roughly 300 names, run by research rather than an index. Active by design, index-fund cheap in practice.

PJFV Human stock pickers running a deliberately short list of undervalued large caps, at 0.33% a year. Most active value funds charge more; most of the cheap rivals are quant machines. This one is judgment, priced close to the robots.

Stated mandate

DFLV The ETF seeks long-term capital appreciation. Its investment approach combines research, portfolio design, portfolio management, and trading, emphasizing long-term expected-return drivers and broad diversification.

PJFV Seeks long-term capital growth through a focused portfolio investing predominantly in large-capitalization companies that the adviser considers undervalued relative to their perceived worth.

Why people hold it

  • DFLV Costs 0.21% a year, well under half the 0.55% median for US value funds in its peer group. Active management without the active price tag.
  • Cheap alone doesn't get you in. The portfolio screens on value and profitability together, a filter aimed at cut-rate stocks that actually earn money.
  • No index to shadow. Dimensional can trade on its own schedule and spreads the money across about 300 large-cap names instead of a handful of bets.
  • Sits in the top tier of the US value funds we grade, and it is a multi-billion-dollar fund that trades actively, so getting in and out is rarely the hard part.
  • PJFV Charges 0.33% a year, well under the 0.55% median for US active value ETFs. Rare pricing for a hand-picked portfolio.
  • "Focused" is the mandate, not marketing: a concentrated book of large caps the manager judges to be trading below what they are worth.pgim.com
  • Lands in the upper tier of the active US value ETFs we grade, helped by pricing that undercuts most of its stock-picking rivals.

Worth knowing

  • DFLV Not the cheapest seat in the room: AVLV and SEIV run 0.15%, WTV 0.12%. You're paying a bit more for Dimensional's process.
  • Being benchmark-free cuts both ways. With no index to measure against, there is no tracking-error scoreboard, and outcomes ride on the manager's judgment.
  • Launched in December 2022, so the ETF's own record is short, and a value tilt behaves differently from the broad market. It pays quarterly.
  • PJFV Trades lightly. Limit orders and a look at the spread matter more here than with a headline index fund.
  • Concentration cuts both ways: with a focused list, a few names steer the outcome, and one manager's read drives the picks.
  • Launched in 2022, so the record is short. Systematic value peers like AVLV and DFLV are cheaper still and spread bets far wider.
