EPS: An Earnings-Weighted ETF That Can't Beat The S&P 500

WisdomTree U.S. LargeCap Fund is rated a hold, lacking a compelling case to replace the S&P 500. EPS uses an earnings-weighted methodology, offering lower valuations and slightly higher dividends but consistently underperforming VOO on risk-adjusted returns. EPS carries a higher expense ratio, increased liquidity risk, and greater concentration risk compared to VOO, with only marginal benefits in income and capital preservation.

EPS: Earnings-Focused Smart Beta Vehicle That Underdelivers

I maintain a Hold rating on the WisdomTree U.S. LargeCap Fund ETF. EPS tracks the index that puts emphasis on earnings instead of market cap, securing slightly better valuation characteristics.

Not In Love With EPS

WisdomTree's U.S. LargeCap ETF has high ratings from Morningstar and Lipper Leaders, but its returns are mediocre compared to the S&P 500. The WisdomTree Large Cap Index, which EPS tracks, includes 500 large U.S. companies but underperforms in profit generation and risk control. Despite its quantitative weighting method, EPS shows no significant advantage over the overall market, with a notable tracking error of 23 basis points annually.
