Why Is The IPO Market Struggling? Here's What Active Managers Have To Say
Strong returns in U.S. stocks, particularly over the past two plus years, have led investors to question the relative lack of companies going public via the IPO process — as well as the potential implications for the IPO market in the long term. 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.

FYC: A Smart Or Speculative Small-Cap Growth ETF?
FYC holds 262 small-cap growth stocks selected based on three short-term screens: price momentum, sales to price ratio, and one-year sales growth. Its expense ratio is high at 0.70%. While these screens are mostly momentum-based, FYC features an attractive 19.87% estimated EPS growth while trading at just 18.14x forward earnings. Importantly, it's also well-diversified. There are risks that FYC is borderline speculative. It holds many non-profitable biotechnology stocks, and its low asset turnover ratio indicates a relatively inefficient use of assets to generate sales.
