About DFUS valuation
Adding up its 1,979 holdings with company data, DFUS trades at 26.1 times trailing earnings and 19.2 times analysts' forward estimates, with a price-to-book ratio of 5.05 and a dividend yield of 1.04%. Its earnings yield of 3.83% is 1.50 percentage points below the 5.33% yield to maturity of the U.S. bond market (AGG).
The ten largest holdings are 35.4% of the fund and earn 33.5% of its combined profit. By sector, Healthcare is the most expensive at 41.9 times earnings and Services the cheapest at 14.2. Companies that lost money over the past year are 3.3% 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 99.1% of the fund's weight (U.S.-listed stocks with company data); company figures as of October 26, 2026.
