FQAL: Quality Does Not Necessarily Mean Growth
Fidelity Quality Factor ETF focuses on quality U.S. large-cap and mid-cap stocks but has underperformed the S&P 500 since inception. FQAL's sector allocation, concentration, and downside risks are similar to the S&P 500, but it has a higher exposure to mid-cap and small-cap stocks. The fund's underperformance is due to lower exposure to growth stocks; it may outperform in a lower rate environment favoring smaller-cap equities.
