Small-cap stocks have not done as well as large-cap stocks recently, but I think they will do better in the long run, which makes the Dimensional U.S. Small Cap ETF a good option. The DFAS ETF is very diversified, with no single investment over 0.45%, and it mainly targets sectors like Financials and Industrials, giving it a value focus. With a low expense ratio of 0.26%, DFAS uses Dimensional's factor-based strategy, which could lead to better performance than regular small-cap ETFs, even though it may be more volatile.
A few small-cap ETFs have been hoovering around an all-time high level.
Rob Harvey, Vice President of Dimensional Funds, and Ben Slavin, Global Head of ETFs for BNY Mellon, join CNBC's Bob Pisani on the ‘Halftime Report' to discuss the alternatives to small cap ETFs.
The Dimensional U.S. Small Cap ETF aims to maximize after-tax value for investors by minimizing capital gains and focusing on long-term gains. DFAS has outperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2000, on a pre-tax basis, but is currently facing challenges due to the market's focus on growth stocks. The fund is heavily weighted towards Industrials and Financials, with a smaller allocation to Technology, which has helped it perform relatively well.
