Our read on each fund

VOOVAVanguard S&P 500 Value ETF

XJRBiShares ESG Select Screened S&P Small-Cap ETF

In short

VOOV Vanguard takes the S&P 500, sorts it by value traits, and hands you the cheap half: roughly 400 familiar large caps, one published index, seven basis points. A value tilt without leaving the blue-chip universe.

XJR XJR lays a light ESG screen over the S&P SmallCap 600, an index that only admits companies with positive earnings. Tobacco, thermal coal, oil sands and weapons get struck out; the rest of the small-cap field stays.

Stated mandate

VOOV The fund seeks to track the performance of the S&P 500 Value Index.

XJR The fund seeks to track small-capitalization U.S. equities through an index that applies environmental, social, and governance screens for controversies and controversial business activities.

Why people hold it

  • VOOV Charges 0.07% a year against a 0.45% median for its index-tracker peer group. The value tilt arrives without the usual factor-fund markup.
  • No manager discretion. It follows one published benchmark, the S&P 500 Value Index, holding roughly 400 large-cap names most investors already know.vanguard.com
  • Running since 2010 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, it sits among the strongest implementations in its peer group of plain index wrappers.
  • XJR Costs 0.12% a year, roughly a quarter of the median fee among the index-tracking funds it competes with.
  • The parent S&P SmallCap 600 admits only companies with positive earnings in the latest quarter and the trailing four, so unprofitable small caps never make the list.spglobal.com
  • Exclusions are spelled out: controversial weapons, small arms, tobacco, oil sands and shale, thermal coal, fossil fuel reserves. You can check what got left out.ishares.com

Worth knowing

  • VOOV SPYV tracks the same S&P 500 Value Index for 0.04%. Same benchmark, thinner fee.
  • You own one side of the index. When the growth half of the S&P 500 leads, this fund's path diverges from the headline benchmark.
  • Volume is moderate rather than heavy, so spreads can run wider than the busiest large-cap ETFs. Cash comes back quarterly, not monthly.
  • XJR A smaller fund that trades lightly. Spreads can widen, so limit orders do real work here.
  • The screen removes offenders rather than ranking companies on sustainability. A firm clears by avoiding the listed businesses and serious controversies.ishares.com
  • Small caps swing harder than large caps in both directions, and the earnings rule softens that without erasing it.spglobal.com
