Alpha Architect Global Factor Equity ETF (AAVM) Stock Price, Quote, News & History | Benzinga

The Fund is a 'fund of funds,' meaning that it primarily invests its assets in the shares of other exchange-traded funds (ETFs), rather than in securities of individual companies. The Funds portfolio will be composed primarily of the other ETFs advised by the Adviser (the 'Alpha Architect ETFs'). Currently, there are four Alpha Architect ETFs, which invest in either domestic or international equity securities, and employ either a 'momentum' or a 'value' investment strategy. In addition, the Fund may, from time to time, use hedging strategies (as described more below). The Alpha Architect ETFs can be grouped into ETFs that use a quantitative momentum investment strategy (Alpha Architect U.S. Quantitative Momentum ETF and Alpha Architect International Quantitative Momentum ETF, referred to as the 'Momentum ETFs') and those that use a quantitative value investment strategy (Alpha Architect U.S. Quantitative Value ETF and the Alpha Architect International Quantitative Value ETF, referred to as the 'Value ETFs'). A 'momentum' investment style emphasizes investing in securities that recently have had better recent total return performance compared to other securities. In contrast, a 'value' investment style emphasizes investing in securities that based on quantitative analysis are considered undervalue compared to other securities.
