IWDAiShares Russell 1000 Value ETF

IWXBiShares Russell Top 200 Value ETF

In short

IWD The original Russell 1000 Value tracker, live since 2000 and still one of the most traded ways to own the value half of US large caps. Roughly 900 stocks, followed closely, at a price that reflects the plumbing.

IWX Value investing with a height requirement. IWX runs its cheap-stock screen only across the Russell Top 200, the biggest end of the US market, and holds roughly 150 of them. Large-cap value with no mid-cap drift, on iShares plumbing since 2009.

Stated mandate

IWD The fund seeks to track an index of U.S. large- and mid-cap stocks that may be undervalued relative to comparable companies.

IWX The fund seeks to follow an index of large-cap U.S. stocks that may be undervalued compared with similar companies.

Why people hold it

  • IWD Follows the Russell 1000 Value Index closely, one of the tightest index-following records among US value funds.
  • About 900 large- and mid-cap names, so no single stock or sector drives the result.
  • Trading since 2000 and actively traded, it is among the easier value ETFs to move in and out of, in size.
  • IWX The mandate stays big. The value screen runs on the Russell Top 200 Value Index, so it is a mega-cap value sleeve, not a large-and-mid grab bag.ishares.com
  • It hugs the index it advertises closely, and lands in the upper half of its US value peer group on our review.
  • Seasoned and sizable: trading since 2009, a multi-billion-dollar fund, paying distributions quarterly.

Worth knowing

  • IWD At 0.18% a year, it costs more than several broad value rivals (VTV 0.03%, SCHV 0.04%, IUSV 0.04%). The extra buys the Russell index and the trading depth.
  • Holding roughly 900 names out of a 1,000-stock parent index, the value tilt is wide and mild, not a concentrated deep-value bet.ishares.com
  • Distributions land quarterly, and the amount rides on what the underlying companies pay.
  • IWX The 0.20% fee sits above the value-cohort median of 0.18%, and far above core rivals like VTV at 0.03% and IUSV at 0.04%.
  • About 150 mega-caps is a short bench. Value funds holding several hundred names spread sector and single-stock moves more thinly.
  • Volume is moderate rather than heavy, so spreads can run wider than the busiest value ETFs, which matters most on large or hurried orders.
