BSVO: Quality A Concern For This Deeply Discounted Active Small-Cap ETF

The EA Bridgeway Omni Small-Cap Value ETF trades at an ultra-low 0.40x P/S ratio and has a $1.24 weighted average market cap, indicating extreme exposure to the size and value factors. BSVO holds over 550 stocks across 101 unique GICS sub-industries, though like many of its peers, it's highly concentrated in Regional Banks, which comprise one quarter of the fund. Quality is also a major issue. Using Seeking Alpha Factor Grades, I determined BSVO's quality is the third-lowest among the nearly 700 U.S. Size & Style ETFs I track.
