Fund Details
Investment Thesis
AVUS is the gateway drug of the Avantis lineup: own essentially the whole US market, but let the ex-Dimensional team nudge every weight toward the value and profitability premiums. The tilts are light enough that it tracks the index closely — beating it modestly most years — which makes it an easy swap for VTI holders who want factor exposure without factor drama.
Who It's For
Total-market investors who'd like a systematic edge without leaving core indexing behind. The one-fund US answer for evidence-based portfolios; pairs with AVDE for the same approach abroad.
