EPSAWisdomTree U.S. LargeCap Fund

IQSUBNYLI Candriam U.S. Large Cap Equity ETF

In short

EPS Large-cap core with a profit filter. Roughly 500 U.S. companies, all of them earnings generators, tracked since 2007 for 0.08% a year. Same plumbing as a plain index fund, with a screen most of them skip.

IQSU The fund that dropped "ESG" from its name in 2023 and kept the screen. Roughly 300 US large caps that score best on Candriam's criteria, weighted by market cap, for 0.09% a year.

Stated mandate

EPS The fund seeks to track earnings-generating large-cap companies in the U.S. equity market.

IQSU Seeks exposure to large-cap U.S. equities (large-cap equity ETF exposure).

Why people hold it

EPS The screen is the whole point: the index holds large U.S. companies that actually generate earnings, so unprofitable names do not ride in on market cap alone.wisdomtree.com
0.08% a year, under the median for its large-cap peer group, and it still spreads across roughly 500 stocks.
Running since 2007 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, it has tracked its index tightly and ranks in the top quartile of its large-cap cohort.
Pays out quarterly, the standard cadence for a core equity holding.

IQSU Charges 0.09% a year, under the 0.14% typical of its large-cap peer group. Screened portfolios usually cost more than that, not less.
Best-in-class, not blacklist. The index takes top-scoring US large caps on Candriam's criteria and weights by market cap, keeping a broad core shape of about 300 stocks.newyorklifeinvestments.com
The scorer is family. New York Life built the index with Candriam, its own subsidiary, as consultant, and Solactive calculates it. No rented third-party ratings feed.newyorklifeinvestments.com newyorklifeinvestments.com 2
Live since 2019, it has tracked its index closely and distributes on a quarterly schedule.

Worth knowing

EPS It trades thinly for the category, so bid-ask spreads can run wider than the heavily traded core names in the group.
Cheaper shelf-mates exist: SCHX and VV charge 0.03%, BKLC charges nothing. The earnings screen is what the extra basis points buy.
Screening on earnings means the portfolio can look different from a plain cap-weighted large-cap index, and its results will drift from that benchmark in both directions.

IQSU Thinly traded next to the category's giants, so the spread between buy and sell prices can weigh more on a round trip than the yearly fee does.
Cheap for its cohort, but plain-vanilla rivals go lower: SCHX and VV both run 0.03%.
A screen means the holdings won't mirror the whole market. The issuer notes the fund may forgo some market opportunities open to funds without these criteria.nylim.com
