Description: QUAL iShares MSCI USA Quality December 03, 2025

QUAL is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the MSCI USA Quality Factor Index, allocating at least 80 % of its assets to the index’s component securities and permitting up to 20 % in futures, options, swaps, cash, or cash equivalents.

The fund is domiciled in the United States, trades under the ticker QUAL, and is classified as a “Large Blend” ETF, meaning it blends growth and value characteristics while remaining market-cap weighted through the MSCI USA parent index.

Recent data (Q3 2024) show an expense ratio of 0.15 %, a 12-month trailing total return of roughly 9.2 % (annualized), and an average daily trading volume of about 1.1 million shares, indicating solid liquidity for a factor-focused product.

Sector exposure is concentrated in Information Technology (~25 % of assets), Healthcare (~20 %), and Consumer Discretionary (~15 %); these sectors historically benefit from the “quality” tilt, which emphasizes stable earnings, high return on equity, and low debt-to-equity ratios.

Macro-driven sensitivities include corporate earnings growth and the prevailing interest-rate environment-higher rates can pressure high-quality, dividend-paying stocks by raising financing costs and compressing valuation multiples.
