Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF features a significantly lower expense ratio of 0.03% compared to JPMorgan BetaBuilders U.S. Small Cap Equity ETF at 0.09%. While the Schwab fund holds over 1,700 stocks for broad diversification, the JPMorgan fund uses a more concentrated approach with roughly 850 holdings.

Large-cap funds dominate most portfolios, but the thousands of smaller companies they ignore have quietly outperformed over the past year.

Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF and Vanguard Morningstar Small-Cap ETF both offer a highly competitive expense ratio of 0.03%. Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF has outperformed on a one-year total return basis but experienced a deeper maximum drawdown over the last five years.

If you're interested in broad exposure to the Small Cap Blend segment of the US equity market, look no further than the Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF (SCHA), a passively managed exchange traded fund launched on November 3, 2009.

Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF is rated BUY for broad, low-cost exposure to 1,731 small-cap U.S. companies, avoiding factor or sector bets. SCHA's 0.03% expense ratio and 11% turnover make it an efficient, long-term allocation for investors seeking to complement large-cap holdings. The recent 36.39% one-year return signals renewed interest in small caps, but SCHA's thesis centers on potential capital appreciation, not income.

The Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF (SCHA) manages significantly more assets and carries a lower expense ratio than iShares Morningstar Small-Cap ETF (ISCB). The Morningstar ETF provides a higher dividend yield but trailed in total returns over the last 12 months.

The Vanguard Small-Cap ETF (VB) and the Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF (SCHA) both charge ultra-low expense ratios of 0.03%. SCHA has delivered a higher one-year total return, driven in part by a large concentration in a single stock.

Small caps have been having a banner year, with the Russell 2000 outperforming the S&P 500 year-to-date. Some small-cap focused ETFs have also surpassed that benchmark.

The Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF provides more affordable access to small-cap equities with an expense ratio of 0.03%. The Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF tracks 1,727 stocks across the small-cap segment, whereas the iShares Core S&P Small-Cap ETF holds a more concentrated portfolio of 652 companies.

The Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF (SCHA) holds nearly three times as many positions as the State Street SPDR Portfolio S&P 600 Small Cap ETF (SPSM). Both ETFs carry identical 0.03% expense ratios, but SPSM has a higher dividend yield than SCHA.
