The iShares DJ Canadian Value ETF (XCV) is often compared to the iShares S&P/TSX Growth ETF (XCG) as they represent two distinct segments of the TSX: value and growth. Some experts argue that investing in both ETFs essentially provides exposure to the entire TSX, suggesting that for those seeking value in Canada, direct investment in prominent banks or broad-based financial services ETFs may be a better option. The value sector predominantly includes banks and energy companies, which are foundational to Canada’s economy. In contrast, the growth sector is characterized by tech companies like Shopify (SHOP) and other companies in the precious metals industry, which may not reflect Canada's broader investment potential. Therefore, those looking to invest in growth should look beyond the Canadian market, as it may not offer many viable options. Overall, the critics of XCG express strong reluctance to include it in their portfolios.

When you put these 2 together, you essentially get the TSX. These ETFs split up the TSX into growth and value in the traditional sense. You might as well just buy XIC.
Value has the banks and a lot of the energy names. If you want value in Canada, just go to the banks directly or to one of the broad-based financial services ETFs. When you look at growth, you have SHOP and CSU and some gold/silver companies -- that's the definition of growth in Canada. If you want to be a growth investor, don't look to Canada. He wouldn't use XCG in any portfolio he can think of.
