Evensky & Katz LLC Portfolio Activity: Significant Changes Observed in Q2 2026

For the quarter ending on June 30, 2026, Evensky & Katz LLC displayed notable shifts in its investment strategy. The analysis of their holdings reveals a mix of additions and disposals across various asset classes.

The investor's portfolio saw several ETFs experience share increases during this period:

• Vanguard Short Term Govt Bond ETF (VGSH) showed a significant increase in shares, contributing to its portfolio_percentage_allocation of 4.15%.
• DFA International Equity Index ETF (DFIC), part of the DFA family of funds, saw a modest increase in shares with a change_percent_from_prior_period of +0.59%.
• PIMCO Investment Grade Corporate ETF (CORP) experienced a substantial percentage increase, though the absolute share count changed by only +27.46%, resulting in a small portfolio_percentage_allocation of 0.42%.

Conversely, Evensky & Katz LLC disposed of several ETFs during Q2:

• iShares Russell 3000 Index ETF (IWV) saw a decrease in shares, reducing its portfolio_percentage_allocation slightly.
• SPY Shares, although not listed by symbol here, experienced a change of -1.25% from prior period data (though the specific ETF name 'SPDR S&P 500 ETF' is implied).
• Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG) also saw a decrease in shares, impacting its allocation.

The most significant sale during the quarter was the near-complete exit from Doubleline Shiller CAPE U.S. Equities ETF (CAPE). The change_percent_from_prior_period of -99.86% indicates a massive reduction in this holding, effectively removing it from the portfolio for practical purposes.

Other notable disposals included:

• Avantis Small Cap Value ETF (AVUV), which experienced a -3.4% change in shares.
• SPDR S&P 600 Small Cap Value ETF (SLYV) saw its share count decrease by -4.63%.
• Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF (COWZ), despite a positive absolute change, saw its portfolio_percentage_allocation reduced to 2.73%.

Additionally, the investor sold positions in other funds:

• J Hancock/DFA Multifactor Developed Intl ETF (JHMD) was disposed of entirely.
• Schwab Short-Term US Treasury Bond ETF (SCHO) saw a decrease in shares, although its impact on the overall portfolio is minimal given its small allocation.

In summary, Evensky & Katz LLC's Q2 2026 activity involved strategic additions to certain fixed-income and factor-based equity ETFs while simultaneously exiting or reducing positions in several US market exposure funds. The most dramatic change was the complete removal of Doubleline Shiller CAPE U.S. Equities ETF (CAPE) from their portfolio.
