EWUS Has Its Flaws, But Not A Bad Bet
iShares MSCI United Kingdom Small-Cap ETF, which focuses on small caps from the UK, suffers from a few structural deficiencies versus the more popular large-cap and mid-cap-oriented EWU.

The UK is suffering from a challenging macroeconomic backdrop, but a more palatable interest rate trajectory and reduced tariff risks vs. other economies may help drive interest.
