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.

JLCO No data

Stated mandate

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

JLCO No data

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.

JLCO No data

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.
