Description: DFAU Dimensional US Core Equity November 03, 2025

The Dimensional US Core Equity Market ETF (DFAU) targets the broad U.S. equity market but tilts toward smaller-cap, lower-price-to-book, and higher-profitability firms relative to their weight in the overall market. It maintains a minimum 80 % equity allocation to U.S. stocks and may adjust individual holdings for short-term factors such as price momentum, reversal patterns, or specific investment characteristics.

Key data points to consider (as of the latest filing): • Expense ratio: 0.12 % – notably lower than the average large-blend ETF, supporting cost-efficient exposure. • Assets under management (AUM): approximately $2.1 bn, indicating growing investor interest but still modest scale relative to peers. • Turnover: ~30 % annually, reflecting the fund’s willingness to rebalance for short-term signals while staying within a core-style framework. Economic drivers that could affect DFAU’s performance include U.S. GDP growth (which benefits small-cap earnings), the Federal Reserve’s policy rate (influencing discount rates for higher-profitability firms), and sector-specific trends such as technology’s continued demand for capital efficiency.
