SPY Vs. IJR: This Chart Shows It's Time To Buy Small Caps
Driven by high valuations and rising treasury rates after the U.S. credit downgrade, SPDR® S&P 500 ETF Trust's valuation risk is among the highest level since the dot-com bubble. Small-cap ETF such iShares Core S&P Small-Cap ETF offers a more attractive risk/return profile. IJR's current yield spread over SPY is at a multi-decade high, and its valuation discount is compelling relative to its own historical level too.

IJR Unlocks The Hidden Small-Cap Premium
IJR could offer a compelling mean reversion trade, capitalizing on the unusually wide small-cap premium and valuation gap versus large caps. This is because IJR tracks the S&P SmallCap 600, which better selects profitable small caps. And because the forward P/E of profitable small-cap companies is lower than that of unprofitable ones, signaling in my opinion, a technical inconsistency in favor of the S&P 600.

IJR: Best Small Cap ETF For Tariff Era Still Not One I'll Chase
Small caps stocks with mostly domestic revenue exposure sounds like a good idea, but it is not nearly ready to be buyable for me. There's still no urgent demand for these stocks after years of underperformance versus larger companies. I rate IJR a sell, though I prefer it to IWM and the disappointing CALF.

IJR Vs. IWM: IJR Is A Better Bet For The Return Of Small-Cap Stocks
Since my last writings, the latest dividend declarations and also interest rate changes have made small-cap one of the most attractive market sectors. I thus see attractive valuation in both IJR and IWM. However, a few differences between these funds make me prefer IJR.
