Does the Avantis Small Cap Value ETF (AVUV) Belong in Your Portfolio?

Today we look at the Avantis Small Cap Value ETF, ticker AVUV. This is a low cost actively managed ETF. Its benchmark is the Russell 2000 Value index. Avantis then focuses on companies it believes offer the best chances of outperforming. The result is a fund that tilts more to small cap and value than a lot of funds that simply track an index. The big question is whether AVUV deserves a place in our portfolios.
