SoFi Select 500 ETF

SFY tracks a multi-factor-weighted index of US large-cap equities selected by market-cap.

Designed to provide broad exposure to the Large Cap Growth segment of the US equity market, the SoFi Select 500 ETF (SFY) is a passively managed exchange traded fund launched on 04/11/2019.

Should SoFi Select 500 ETF (SFY) Be on Your Investing Radar?

SoFi Select 500 ETF is a hold due to its reactive adjustments, high NVDA concentration, and potential fee increases next year. SFY's growth-focused model has led to underperformance compared to SCHG and QQQ, despite a strong 5-year CAGR of 18.36%. SFY's heavy NVDA weighting increases risk, while lower weights on MSFT and AAPL reduce diversification, potentially missing future growth opportunities.

SFY: Chasing Growth Without Substantially Capturing Returns

NEW YORK, Sept. 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Board of Trustees of Tidal ETF Trust (the “Trust”) has approved a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of the SoFi Select 500 ETF (NYSE Arca: SFY) (the “Fund”). The reverse split will take effect after the close of trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”) on October 1, 2024.

SoFi Announces Reverse Stock Split for SoFi Select 500 ETF (SFY)

The SoFi Select 500 ETF (SFY) made its debut on 04/11/2019, and is a smart beta exchange traded fund that provides broad exposure to the Style Box - Large Cap Growth category of the market.

Is SoFi Select 500 ETF (SFY) a Strong ETF Right Now?

SFY has delivered solid returns since May 2019 and has proven to be a solid choice for moderately aggressive growth investors. Importantly, its 0.19% expense ratio is currently waived. Its Index recently reconstituted, and Nvidia now comprises 13% of SFY. This high single-stock risk is the result of a process that only considers one year's worth of growth data. Still, SFY now has a superior combination of value and growth compared to its large-cap growth peers. As I will demonstrate, it ranks average or better on 9/10 key factors.

Ahead of World Health Day, let us examine the supplements for a robust ETF investment portfolio.

Building Healthy ETF Portfolios: 6 Key Nutrients

SFY is a well-diversified ETF holding 500 of the largest U.S. securities. Similar to SPY, it's outperformed since its inception, and routinely features a higher trailing and estimated growth rate. By incorporating a composite growth score into its weighting process, SFY has about 50% less exposure to Magnificent Seven stocks than most growth funds, including VUG, SCHG, and QQQ. However, I've downgraded SFY because its forward PEG ratio has increased from 1.35x to 2.45x in the last year, signaling that growth stocks are too richly valued.

SoFi Select 500 ETF offers exposure to the 500 largest US companies without a management fee, but the fee waiver will end in June 2024. SFY's proprietary weighting methodology does not add value, as it has underperformed market ETFs like SPY. Investors should consider other ETFs such as SPY or QQQ, which have better risk-adjusted returns and lower fees once the fee waiver period ends.

Low expense ratio ETFs allow investors to keep more of your money working for you, which helps them to build long-term wealth.

Low-Cost ETFs for Building Long-Term Wealth

Year after year, investors say that expense ratio matters most when choosing an ETF. While I've long advocated for investors to dive deeper to understand what's inside the funds they own or are considering, what has become clear is that awareness is key to an ETF being selected.

If Expense Ratio Really Mattered, Most of These ETFs Would Dominate

SoFi Select 500 ETF is a pretty simple value-based exchange-traded fund that focuses on healthcare and technology a little more than the SPY ETF. The expense ratios are substantially higher though than SPY-tracking ETFs.

SFY follows a proprietary screening method to reweight 500 of the largest U.S. companies by their revenue and earnings growth rates. SFY's growth and valuation metrics usually fall somewhere in between SPY and SPYG, two proxies for large-cap blend and growth. However, that's not the case today.

SFY is a relatively new zero-cost ETF that will appeal to the moderately aggressive growth investor. It's slightly outperformed SPYG through the current downturn but lags the S&P 500 Index.
