ILCG ETF: Not Ideal
ILCG which focuses on large-cap-and-mid-cap stocks with growth characteristics has outperformed the benchmark by 700bps over the past year. Notwithstanding the recent performance, we don't feel ILCG is as competent a growth ETF as VUG, the largest offering in this space. The relative strength and standalone charts suggest that this is an overbought theme, and valuations are not cheap either.

Active managers are better equipped to navigate the current environment relative to passive funds like ILCG. Growth-oriented investors should consider QQQ as an alternative, which has consistently outperformed ILCG with similar exposure and volatility.
