About AVSC valuation
Adding up its 1,380 holdings with company data, AVSC trades at 67.5 times trailing earnings and 12.2 times analysts' forward estimates, with a price-to-book ratio of 1.76 and a dividend yield of 1.46%. Its earnings yield of 1.48% is 3.84 percentage points below the 5.33% yield to maturity of the U.S. bond market (AGG).
The ten largest holdings are 3.3% of the fund and earn 8.1% of its combined profit. By sector, Technology is the most expensive at 112.6 times earnings and Financials the cheapest at 16.2. Companies that lost money over the past year are 17.3% of the covered weight.
How these figures are calculated. Each ratio treats the fund as one company: the earnings, sales and book value of every holding are added up in proportion to its weight and divided into the fund's price. In practice that is a weighted harmonic mean, so a single stock with a very high P/E cannot distort the result, and loss-making companies reduce the fund's earnings instead of being dropped. Covers 95.1% of the fund's weight (U.S.-listed stocks with company data); company figures as of October 26, 2026.
