At its worst it fell 22.0% in the 2022 bear market (S&P 500: 24.5%), and was back at its earlier high 15 months after the low. Its ten largest positions make up 42.6% of the fund, out of 100 in all.
The short version
Invesco S&P 500 Concentrated QVM ETF (QVMT) tracks the S&P 500 Quality, Value & Momentum Multi-factor Index. That index picks the 100 S&P 500 stocks that score highest on three traits combined: business quality, low price relative to fundamentals, and strong recent price trends. Its 0.13% expense ratio was the lowest of nine similar funds compared, against a peer average of 0.38%. The trade-off is a narrower portfolio that can lag the broad market.

How it works
S&P Dow Jones Indices starts with the S&P 500 and gives each stock three scores. The quality score uses return on equity (profit relative to shareholders' money), the accruals ratio (how much of reported earnings is backed by cash) and financial leverage (how much debt a company carries). Banks and real estate companies are scored only on return on equity and leverage. The value score compares book value, earnings and sales with the share price. The momentum score looks at risk-adjusted price performance over a set past period. The three scores are averaged, and the 100 stocks with the highest averages generally make the index.
Each stock's weight depends on its float-adjusted market value (the value of shares available to the public) and its combined score. So big companies with high scores get the most weight. As of August 31, 2026, Apple was 5.3% of the fund and ExxonMobil 5.2%. Lam Research, Sandisk, Caterpillar and Cisco were each about 4.6%, and GE Vernova was 4.5%. The top 10 made up 42.6%.
The fund uses full replication, meaning it buys every stock in the index in proportion to its weight. It keeps at least 90% of assets in index stocks. It holds a stock that is doing poorly until the index removes it. Portfolio turnover was 31%. The fund was managed as diversified as of January 31, 2026, but it could become non-diversified if index weights shift. As of December 31, 2025, the index had significant exposure to financials.
What it really costs
- QVMT charges 0.13% a year, versus an average of 0.38% for the similar funds below (1st of 9, cheapest first).
- Using the prospectus's standard example, $10,000 invested would cost about $13 in the first year and $166 over 10 years (assuming a 5% annual return).
| Cost of $10,000 (SEC example) | 1 yr | 3 yrs | 5 yrs | 10 yrs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| QVMT | $13 | $42 | $73 | $166 |
In a retirement portfolio
It is a 100-stock, three-factor slice of the S&P 500 that can trail the broad market for long stretches, so it fits better as a complement to a core holding than as a replacement for one.
Alongside a broad index fund, QVMT can add a tilt toward profitable, lower-priced stocks with rising prices. It costs 0.13% a year: $166 over 10 years on $10,000 in the SEC's standard example. The trailing yield was 1.7% as of October 27, 2026, paid quarterly. The fund launched in 2015, so it has no 2008 record. It lost 10.17% in 2020, its worst calendar year from 2016 through 2025, and 37.96% in the first quarter of 2020 alone. In the 2022 bear market it fell 22% between January 14 and September 30, 2022. It did not regain its earlier peak until January 2, 2024, about 15 months after the low. A retiree selling shares for cash during a stretch like that would lock in losses. Past results don't predict the future, and a plan should look at the whole portfolio, not one fund.
Who it may suit — and who should look elsewhere
May suit
- Cost-conscious investors who want a quality, value and momentum tilt within the S&P 500 for 0.13% a year, the lowest of nine similar funds compared.
- Investors comfortable with 100 stocks where the top 10, led by Apple and ExxonMobil, made up 42.6% of assets as of August 31, 2026.
- People who want some quarterly income along with growth: the trailing yield was 1.7% as of October 27, 2026.
Look elsewhere if
- Investors who want all 500 S&P 500 companies. This fund holds 100 and can trail the index when its factors fall out of favor.
- Anyone unsettled by sharp drops. It lost 37.96% in the first quarter of 2020 and took about 15 months to recover from its 2022 low.
- Those who prefer larger funds or recent strength. Net assets were about $133 million as of August 31, 2026, and its one-year return ranked 8th of 9 peers.

Questions investors ask
What does QVMT invest in?
QVMT holds the 100 S&P 500 stocks with the highest combined scores for quality, value and momentum, following an index from S&P Dow Jones Indices. Stocks are weighted by market value and score. As of August 31, 2026, the largest holdings were Apple, ExxonMobil, Lam Research, Sandisk, Caterpillar, Cisco and GE Vernova. The top 10 made up 42.6% of assets, and about 96% of assets were in US companies.
How has QVMT performed over 10 years?
QVMT returned an average of 11.28% a year over the 10 years ended December 31, 2025, according to its prospectus. Over five years it averaged 14.2% a year, and in 2025 it gained 18.91%. The path was uneven. It lost 9.26% in 2018, 10.17% in 2020 and 5.44% in 2022, and its strongest year was 2021, at 35.32%. Past returns don't predict future results.
Does QVMT pay dividends?
Yes. QVMT pays distributions quarterly. Over the 12 months to October 27, 2026, it paid about $1.08 per share, a trailing yield of 1.7%. That income comes from the dividends of the 100 stocks it holds, so the amount can change from quarter to quarter. QVMT is built around quality, value and momentum scores, not high yield. Income is a side effect of its approach, not its goal.
QVMT vs RPV: what's the difference?
Both are Invesco funds built from S&P 500 stocks, and about 29% of their holdings overlap. RPV, the Invesco S&P 500 Pure Value ETF, targets value stocks. QVMT blends value with quality and momentum. QVMT charges 0.13% a year and RPV charges 0.35%. As of October 27, 2026, RPV returned 21.8% over one year against QVMT's 16.8%. RPV is also much larger, with about $1.68 billion in net assets as of July 31, 2026.
What is QVMT's expense ratio?
QVMT's expense ratio is 0.13%, according to its prospectus filed February 20, 2026. That was the lowest of nine similar funds compared, where the average was 0.38%. The SEC's standard example assumes $10,000 invested with a 5% annual return. On that basis, fund costs come to about $13 after one year, $42 after three years, $73 after five years and $166 after 10 years.
