Avantis U.S. Equity ETF (AVUS)

total-market factor-based value-tilt profitability

This fund offers exposure to the entire U.S. equity market with a subtle tilt toward smaller and more profitable companies. Unlike traditional index funds that weight purely by market capitalization, it employs a systematic approach to overweight stocks with characteristics associated with higher expected returns. The strategy appeals to those seeking broad market exposure while incorporating academic insights about factors that drive long-term performance.
