What is a value ETF and a growth ETF?

Share
In short
  • As of Nov 4, 2026, ETFIQ places 395 stock ETFs in value segments, 235 in growth and 716 in blend.

In plain words

A value stock looks cheap against its earnings or book value. A growth stock has earnings expected to grow faster than the market. A value ETF leans to the first, a growth ETF to the second, and a blend fund owns both.

ETFIQ places every US stock fund by size and style: 716 blend, 395 value and 235 growth. Index providers define value and growth by different rules, so funds in one segment can own very different things. Read the holdings and the benchmark, not only the label.

Questions

Is a value fund the same as a dividend fund?

No. A dividend fund picks by payout. A value fund picks by price against earnings or book value. They can overlap.

Who decides what counts as value?

The index provider, by its own rules. They differ from one index to the next.

Where do I see a fund’s style?

On the fund page, in its category and segment.
