"JPMorgan Active Value ETF (NYSEARCA:JAVA) uses fundamental research to identify quality companies trading below intrinsic worth. The question is whether JPMorgan's active management justifies the premium. Where JAVA Fits in a Portfolio JAVA serves investors seeking value exposure with an active twist. Rather than tracking a value index, the fund's managers employ bottom-up research to find companies with strong fundamentals at attractive valuations. The portfolio tilts heavily toward financials at 20% and healthcare at 16.4%, with lower technology exposure at 9%."
"Yet the market still prices shares at just 14 times forward profits, creating the exact mismatch between quality and valuation that JAVA targets. Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) represents a similar opportunity where operational improvements haven't yet translated into multiple expansion. With $5.2 billion in assets under management, JAVA pursues an active repositioning strategy that sets it apart from passive competitors."
JPMorgan Active Value ETF (JAVA) uses bottom-up fundamental research to identify quality companies trading below intrinsic worth, targeting mispriced opportunities rather than tracking a value index. The portfolio emphasizes financials (20%) and healthcare (16.4%) with lower technology exposure (9%). Examples include Wells Fargo and Bank of America, where operational improvements have not yet driven multiple expansion. With $5.2 billion AUM and 111% turnover, the fund actively repositions holdings instead of relying on index rebalancing. JAVA has kept pace with the S&P 500 and outperformed during early 2026 volatility, and it pays a 1.35% dividend yield.
