VBR: New Highs Incoming? I Think So
I'm initiating Vanguard Small-Cap Value ETF at a buy rating due to its bullish technical setup and strong seasonality ahead. VBR offers massive diversification with over 800 holdings, though some are actually mid- or large-cap stocks. A breakout above $194 appears imminent, supported by positive momentum indicators and historical seasonal strength in July.

VBR: The Selling Is Overdone, A Compelling Valuation After A 23% Decline
President Trump's tariffs have severely impacted markets, with US small-cap value stocks like VBR down 23% from their November 2024 high. Despite the downturn, VBR's valuation is compelling at a P/E ratio near 12x, and I maintain a buy rating on the ETF. VBR's sector breakdown includes significant weights in Financials, Industrials, and Consumer Discretionary, with a relatively low expense ratio of seven basis points.

Ready for a Return to Value? These Small-Cap Value ETFs Could Surprise This Year
The appetite for high-multiple growth stocks has really faded in recent weeks. And while the S&P 500 seems well on its way to staging a comeback after slipping into a correction, it remains unknown as to whether high-multiple names (think the Magnificent Seven) will pick up where they left off before the Trump-driven slump.
