Description: DFAU Dimensional US Core Equity

DFAU is a U.S. equity ETF that uses a factor-tilted, rules-based strategy, investing in companies across the size spectrum with increased exposure to smaller-capitalization, lower-relative-price, and higher-profitability stocks relative to the broader U.S. equity universe. The fund commits at least 80% of its net assets to U.S. equity securities, and the advisor may adjust individual company weights using shorter-term signals such as price momentum and short-run reversals. Classified as a large-blend ETF on the NYSE, DFAU provides broad market participation through systematic factor tilts rather than discretionary stock picking.
