FYC: High Fee, High Risk, Little Reward From Growthier SMID Stocks
FYC is a passively managed ETF targeting high-growth names in the small-cap arena. FYC has beaten a few SMID peers since the index change but underperformed the market proxied with IVV.

While its growth characteristics look strong, exposure to low-quality and high-beta stocks is an issue.

According to active equity managers, a combination of increased public market regulation, a reduced pipeline of potential offerings following the prior boom, the rising role of large private asset managers in capital raising, and near-term uncertainty surrounding government policy are all contributing factors. At Russell Investments, we think investors benefit from taking a long-term view.
