Market cap $2.33B

The iShares U.S. Small-Cap Equity Factor ETF (SMLF) was launched on April 28, 2015, and is a passively managed exchange traded fund designed to offer broad exposure to the Small Cap Blend segment of the US equity market.

We can claim that SMLF is skewed towards higher-quality small-cap stocks, as its industry skew is towards sectors with lower credit spreads. Quality tends to be important for small-cap performance in easing cycles. Small-cap stocks are generally more floating-rate exposed, which also means easing cycles reduce interest expense. We have outstanding questions about whether more rate cuts are actually going to happen. There are also other possible challenges, including tariffs and macro for US small caps.
