I really do like COWZ, but compared to AVUV I am not as big of a fan. There is a new ETF out called FLOW, which is nearly an identical copy to COWZ except with a 0.25% ER. The problem is it has extremely low volume at this time.Neither AVUV nor COWZ has enough position in my portfolio to make or break my future. Regarding the turnover - don't care (it's in tax-deferred). COWZ does follow an index BTW (unlike AVUV). That said I would argue neither fund is "actively managed" in the traditional sense.COWZ is cool in theory, but a 0.49% ER and a 90% turnover has me thinking that it's long term performance will end up suffering heavily. I'd much rather trust my future on a carefully constructed, low turnover, relatively low expense ratio, and academically sound fund like AVUV.I like value but AVUV is overrated IMHO. I'd rather use something a bit more broad like VLU or COWZ.
