Time To Unload IVAL And Replace It With JIVE For International Long-Term Value

IVAL ranks last among 41 International Equity Value ETFs. I rate it a Sell due to poor performance and lack of hedging.

IVAL's focus on mid-cap stocks and lack of hedging contribute to its underperformance compared to JIVE's diversified and hedged portfolio.
