Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: Schwab Fundamental U.S. Small Company ETF (FNDA) breaks the link between market prices and portfolio weightings, which injects a contrarian rebalancing approach that should give the fund an edge over its peers over the long term. This is a value strategy, though it falls in the small-blend Morningstar Category. While there is much to like about this strategy, its weighting approach may cause it to overweight stocks with deteriorating fundamentals, and it charges more than market-cap-weighted value alternatives, limiting its Morningstar Analyst Rating to Bronze Regards, Ted https://www.morningstar.com/articles/882619/a-contrarian-smallcap-etf.html
