AV Avantis All Equity Markets ETF
AVGE - US0250722321 100.00%
This portfolio is built around a single holding: the Avantis All Equity Markets ETF at 100%. That means everything here is in one diversified equity fund rather than a mix of separate funds or individual stocks. Structurally, this is very simple to manage and easy to track, because there are no shifting weights or rebalancing decisions between holdings. The trade-off is that all risk and return characteristics come from this one product, so there is no “backup” strategy if it behaves differently from expectations. In practice, this looks like a globally diversified stock portfolio delivered in one wrapper, with clear exposure to the ups and downs of the equity markets.
Growth
Over the period from late 2022 to mid‑2026, a hypothetical $1,000 in this ETF grew to about $2,117, giving a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.27%. CAGR is like average speed on a road trip: it smooths out bumps to show the typical yearly pace. This was just slightly behind both the US market and the global market benchmarks, which also had very strong results. The maximum drawdown, or worst peak‑to‑trough drop, was -17.17%, a bit milder than the US market. The portfolio recovered that dip within a few months, showing a relatively quick bounce‑back, but those swings still reflect full‑equity risk.
Projection
The forward projection uses a Monte Carlo simulation, which is basically a large set of “what if” scenarios built from historical patterns. Here, 1,000 different 15‑year paths were simulated using the portfolio’s past risk and return behaviour. The median outcome turned $1,000 into about $2,800, with a broad possible range from roughly $1,000 to above $8,000. The average annualized return across all simulations was 8.28%, notably lower than the recent historical CAGR. This illustrates a key point: strong past returns don’t automatically continue, and simulated paths can’t predict exact outcomes, only a range of plausible futures based on past volatility.
Asset classes
- Stocks 100%
All of this portfolio sits in stocks, with 0% in bonds, cash, or alternatives. From an asset class perspective, that makes it a pure equity allocation rather than a multi‑asset blend. Full equity exposure usually means higher long‑term growth potential but also sharper downturns when markets fall, because there’s no more defensive asset class to cushion drops. Compared with common “balanced” mixes that combine stocks and bonds, this is more growth‑oriented in structure. The diversification happens inside the equity sleeve itself, not across different asset types, so overall risk will largely follow global stock market cycles.
Sectors
- Technology 21%
- Financials 18%
- Industrials 13%
- Consumer Discretionary 12%
- Energy 8%
- Telecommunications 7%
- Health Care 6%
- Basic Materials 5%
- Consumer Staples 5%
- Real Estate 3%
- Utilities 2%
Sector exposure is spread across many areas, with technology at 21% and financials at 18% being the largest slices. Industrials and consumer discretionary also have meaningful weights, while more traditionally defensive areas like utilities and consumer staples make up smaller portions. Compared with broad global equity benchmarks, this looks reasonably well‑balanced, without a single sector dominating the picture. That balance helps reduce the impact if one part of the economy runs into issues, since other sectors may behave differently. However, with a meaningful allocation to economically sensitive sectors, the portfolio will still feel the effect of broad business cycles and interest‑rate shifts.
Regions
- North America 72%
- Europe Developed 10%
- Asia Developed 6%
- Japan 4%
- Asia Emerging 4%
- Australasia 1%
- Latin America 1%
- Africa/Middle East 1%
Geographically, the portfolio leans heavily toward North America at 72%, with the rest spread across developed Europe, Japan, other developed Asia, and emerging markets. This is actually quite similar to many global market‑cap indexes, which are also dominated by North American companies. The presence of Europe, Japan, and emerging regions improves diversification compared with a US‑only portfolio, because different economies can move on their own timelines. At the same time, the strong North American tilt means a lot of the overall behaviour will still be driven by that region’s market trends, currency, and economic policy decisions.
Market capitalization
- Mid-cap 28%
- Large-cap 27%
- Mega-cap 26%
- Small-cap 13%
- Micro-cap 6%
The size breakdown is quite balanced across mega‑cap, large‑cap, and mid‑cap companies, with smaller but still meaningful allocations to small‑cap and micro‑cap stocks. This means the portfolio is not just concentrated in the biggest global names. Exposure to mid, small, and micro caps usually adds more growth potential and sometimes stronger factor tilts, but it also tends to increase volatility and sensitivity to economic conditions. Compared with a pure mega‑cap or blue‑chip index, this structure should capture a wider set of business types and growth stages, making returns more representative of the broader corporate universe rather than only the giants.

- Top 10 total 14.03%
Looking through the ETF’s top holdings, the largest underlying positions are well‑known global companies like Apple, NVIDIA, Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta. Each of these sits at around 1–2.5% of the total portfolio, so no single stock dominates risk or return. Because this is a single fund, overlap is really about how much weight these big names get inside it, not about duplication across multiple ETFs. Even so, the combined exposure to a small group of mega‑cap technology‑related companies is noticeable. That cluster can become a key driver of performance in periods when large tech and communication names move sharply up or down.
Factors
On the factor side, this portfolio shows high tilts toward value, size, and low volatility, while momentum, quality, and yield sit near neutral. Factor exposure is like looking at the “personality traits” of the portfolio rather than just the tickers. A strong value tilt means a preference for cheaper‑priced stocks relative to fundamentals, while a strong size tilt means more emphasis on smaller companies than the broad market. The higher low‑volatility score suggests a tendency toward stocks that have historically moved less than the market. Together, these traits can shape how the portfolio behaves in different environments, especially versus a plain market‑cap index.
Risk contribution
-
Avantis All Equity Markets ETF
Weight: 100.00% 100.0%
Because the entire allocation is in a single ETF, that fund contributes 100% of the portfolio’s risk by definition. Risk contribution measures how much each holding drives the overall ups and downs; here, there’s no diversification across separate strategies or asset types at the top level. Within the ETF, there is still diversification across hundreds of companies, but from a portfolio‑construction view, all eggs are in one basket. This simplicity can be attractive from a management standpoint, yet it also means that any changes in how this specific fund is run, or how its strategy performs, directly affect the entire portfolio.
Dividends
- Avantis All Equity Markets ETF 1.40%
- Weighted yield (per year) 1.40%
The overall dividend yield of about 1.40% suggests that most of the portfolio’s expected long‑term return is likely to come from price changes rather than regular income. Yield is simply the annual cash payout as a percentage of current value. For a globally diversified equity ETF, a moderate yield like this is quite typical, especially when it includes a mix of growth‑oriented and more mature companies. Over time, reinvested dividends can still play a meaningful role in compounding returns, even if the headline yield looks modest. The key driver, though, will remain how global stock prices evolve rather than the level of income payments.
Ongoing product costs
- Avantis All Equity Markets ETF 0.23%
- Weighted costs total (per year) 0.23%
The total expense ratio (TER) of 0.23% is relatively low for an actively tilted global equity ETF. TER is the annual fee charged by the fund, expressed as a percentage of the invested amount, and it comes out of returns before you see them. Lower ongoing costs leave more of the gross performance in investors’ hands, which can add up over many years through compounding. While some plain index trackers may be slightly cheaper, this fee level is very reasonable given the added factor tilts and breadth of global exposure. Overall, the cost structure supports long‑term performance rather than dragging heavily on it.
