Investors typically turn to dividend-paying stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to boost their passive income streams so that their returns aren't solely tied to stock price gains. But so far this year, many value and income stocks have performed better than growth stocks.
Launched on 12/17/2007, the Vanguard Mega Cap Value ETF (MGV) is a passively managed exchange traded fund designed to provide a broad exposure to the Large Cap Value segment of the US equity market.
The Vanguard Mega Cap Value ETF (MGV) offers a value-oriented approach with a focus on large U.S. companies, achieving below-average volatility. MGV's portfolio includes 137 companies, emphasizing financials, healthcare, and consumer staples, with limited exposure to technology and consumer discretionary sectors. MGV's valuation is attractive, with a P/E ratio of 16.5x, a 24% discount to the S&P 500, and a high dividend yield of 2.31%.
Classic exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are almost always a good investment. Your money will probably grow over time if invested in the SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust (DIA -0.27%) or the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO -0.34%).

Investors looking to achieve diversification and a steady stream of passive income have come to the right place.
Last year, we highlighted large value companies in the Vanguard Mega Cap Value Index Fund ETF Shares as compelling due to low P/E ratios and attractive valuations. MGV has since performed well, nearly matching the S&P 500 without the AI hype, but now appears fairly valued and no longer an attractive entry point. Despite high front rates in 2024 favoring large-cap stocks, we recommend holding MGV rather than initiating new positions at current valuations.

Vanguard's MGV ETF is a value-oriented fund with an impressive average annual total return over 10 years of 10.8%. The expense fee is a relatively affordable 0.07%. The #1 holding is Broadcom, which is not generally considered a "value stock." Other top holdings include Berkshire Hathaway, Exxon, and Walmart. However, the MGV ETF has underperformed compared to other value funds, and I'll uncover a potentially superior alternative.

MGV is a low-cost value fund that selects mega-cap stocks based on five ratios: book-to-price, future earnings-to-price, historical earnings-to-price, dividends to price, and sales-to-price. It shares many similarities with the Vanguard Value ETF, including a low five-year beta and nearly identical valuation ratios. Naturally, it's slightly more concentrated, but the quality is higher. MGV has demonstrated solid downside protection over the last decade. However, FVAL is another low-cost value ETF I want readers to consider.
