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. Risk metrics, including the maximum drawdowns, have been especially worrisome. FYC's factor mix is not to my liking. While its growth characteristics look strong, exposure to low-quality and high-beta stocks is an issue.

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.
