Inspire 500 ETF applies proprietary faith-based screens to the 500 largest U.S. companies by market cap. Its expense ratio is 0.09%, and the ETF has $646 million in assets under management.

IT-heavy PTL is confidently beating IVV this year, despite having exposure to only one trillion-dollar company, AVGO.
