PTL: Inspire's Faith-Based Screens Come At A Quality Cost
Inspire 500 ETF applies proprietary faith-based screens to the 500 largest U.S. companies by market cap. Its expense ratio is 0.09%, and the ETF has $646 million in assets under management. Inspire screens for "violations" and "excellence", but regardless of whether these screens are sufficient from a biblically responsible investing perspective, they come at a significant quality cost. My overweight and underweight holdings analysis will demonstrate that by excluding the Magnificent 7 and other market leaders, PTL's margins and capital efficiency ratios materially worsen.

It targets holding positions in approximately 25-35 companies that are listed on U.S. national securities exchanges, aiming to provide investors with targeted exposure to the U.S. equity market. Given its strategy, the fund aligns with investors seeking concentrated exposure rather than diversified investments.
