The fund tracks a traditional style index that divides the Russell 2000 Index into growth and value subsets using just two growth factors: IBES 2-year growth forecasts and 5-year historical sales-per-share growth. The index selects from stocks ranked 1001-3000 by market-cap based on these growth factors, and weights holdings in a similar fashion. The fund avoids a mid-cap bias but reaches into micro-cap stocks, which increases market risk. Sector biases are mild except for an overweight to healthcare and tech. Overall, the fund is a viable choice for small-cap growth exposure. The index is reconstituted on an annual basis.
