Alternatives
Other options when no large cap value funds are available
- Large Cap Dividend Funds — Since value companies often pay dividends, funds that focus on dividends have high overlap with value funds.
- USA Large Cap Value — The US constitutes a large percentage of the total world market, and there are more factor funds available there than elsewhere.
Definition

The Portfolio Charts large cap value data tracks the largest 85% of a given market sorted by capitalization. Consistent with most index fund definitions, large cap funds also include mid cap companies. This is sometimes referred to as the “standard” index.
Some index providers define large cap blend using a company count instead of market percentages. Because of the way both methods are based on historical standards in the data, they should still be in the same ballpark.
“Value” means that the index focuses on the half of the market considered a good deal relative to company fundamentals. Even if the entire market is undervalued or overvalued, the fund will still hold the relatively undervalued half of the market.

Large Cap Value Stock Data for All Markets and Home Countries
Everything this page knows about large cap value stocks, as plain text for readers and assistants that cannot use the controls above: first the performance stats for every market and home country, then every index fund on this page by market and home country. The blocks above show one market and one home country at a time; these tables show all of them.
To open this page on a specific market and home country, link readers to it with ?market=MARKET&home=COUNTRY added to the URL, using the codes shown in parentheses — market codes on the rows of the stats tables and in the Market column of the fund tables, home country codes on the stats tables' headings and in the Home countries column of the fund tables (e.g. ?market=xus&home=deu). Either parameter may be omitted; the defaults are the United States for both. The asset itself is fixed by the page, so ?pk= has no effect here. More in the Guide for AI Assistants.
