SPDR® S&P 600 Small Cap Growth ETF underperforms SPY due to small-cap industrials' vulnerability to tariffs and structurally more limited supply chain diversity. The financial exposures in SLYG are also exposed to risks associated with the labor market. There are good reasons for SPY's outperformance of the mid to small-cap slice of the US market. We are not keen on betting on a convergence at the moment.

SLYG has underperformed peers due to simplistic growth criteria and misaligned sector tilts, making it a less compelling small-cap growth ETF choice. I recommend IWO or VBK for small-cap growth exposure, as their methodologies are more robust and have consistently delivered higher returns. Given SLYG's track record, the fund's risk-return profile doesn't justify investment over better-performing alternatives in the small-cap growth space.
