Invesco S&P 500 Quality ETF maintains a 'buy' rating, despite recent underperformance versus the JPMorgan U.S. Quality Factor ETF, iShares MSCI USA Quality Factor ETF, and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust. SPHQ heavily favors tech stocks, now at its 40% sector cap, driven by high ROE and market cap weighting. This article explains why this may not change much moving forward. SPHQ's 41.57% ROE is the highest among all the U.S. Large-Cap ETFs I track, proving that it comes as advertised. However, unusually high profitability may not be sustainable.
Outperformance is only half the story of quality investing. As George Valantis, director of factors and dividends at S&P Dow Jones Indices, pointed out — the quality factor can also matter for how portfolios behave when markets come under pressure.
Among the various investment factors, quality rarely gets the same attention as growth, size, or value. However, focusing on quality over long-term holding periods quietly delivers outsized benefits.
