Morningstar ETFInvestor takes a valuation-conscious approach to investing. We look at an ETF's stock holdings in an effort to find funds that hold a sizable stake of undervalued stocks.
Objective
Morningstar ETFInvestor features two portfolios with distinctive approaches and a shared objective of outperforming the S& P 500 overa 3- to 5-year period.

Provides wide diversification while keeping a lid on fund expenses and turnover.

Tends to concentrate in specific sectors to take advantage of trends, and requires more oversight than a fund portfolio.
