Brandes US Value ETF

Buffett indicator at record highs flags risk. These high-momentum, lower-P/E ETFs -- DEM, DFJ, BUSA, DFNL, DGT -- may offer value cushions.

BUSA is a relatively new actively managed large-cap value ETF with $150 million in assets and a 0.60% expense ratio. Selecting stocks based on the principles of Benjamin Graham and David Dodd, BUSA's Investment Committee has designed a portfolio with a forward P/E that's incredibly attractive versus its category peers. However, on a sector-adjusted basis, BUSA's value features aren't much better than low-cost index funds like IWD, SPYV, and VTV. BUSA also makes diversification, quality, and sentiment sacrifices.

Firms should offer ETF products because investor demand is not slowing down, according to one Goldman Sachs ETF expert.
