Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Value ETF (NYSEArca: SCHV)
AUM: $1.2 billion
Comment: As we noted at the outset, each and every Schwab ETF is available to the firm’s clients on a commission-free basis. That includes SCHV, which has proven sturdy this year as investors have embraced value stocks and funds. Not only is SCHV a value play, but it is a valid idea for the frugal investor. The ETF’s 0.07% expense ratio is downright paltry among U.S. large-cap ETFs.
