About this ETF
This Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) aims to achieve significant long-term appreciation in its capital. Under typical market circumstances, it allocates a minimum of 80% of its total assets, potentially including funds borrowed for investment, to equity securities issued by smaller companies. These small-capitalization firms are defined as those whose market value, at the time of initial investment, falls within the range of companies comprising the Russell 2000 Growth Index as established during its most recent rebalancing. The fund's holdings are primarily composed of common shares from corporations headquartered in the United States, in addition to non-U.S. companies whose stocks are principally traded on U.S. exchanges. Through a multi-manager strategy, the ETF endeavors to access the growth-oriented portion of the small-cap equity market by integrating the expertise of various portfolio management teams.

Guided help: AUM is fund size. The expense ratio is the yearly cost baked into returns. NAV is the value of what the fund owns per share; the market price can sit slightly above (premium) or below (discount) it. Total return assumes distributions were reinvested. Every dataset shows its own as-of date because holdings, assets and quotes update on different schedules.
