Our read on BBSC
BJ.P. Morgan's quiet small-cap index fund: roughly 900 names, a 0.09% fee well under the category median, and an index it follows tightly. The trade-off is thin trading volume.
The fund is designed to provide exposure to the U.S. small-cap equity market through an indexed approach. It seeks to track its underlying index by using a passive strategy.
Why people hold it
- Charges 0.09% a year against a small-cap category median of 0.25%. Same passive job, a smaller slice going to the fund.
- Spreads across roughly 900 small caps tracking a Morningstar index, so no single name swings the whole portfolio.am.jpmorgan.com
- Sticks close to its benchmark, among the tightest index-tracking in its small-cap peer group. What is in the index is what shows up here.
- Undercuts IWM, the best-known ticker in US small caps, which runs 0.19%.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded next to the category's giants, so bid-ask spreads can run wider. That bites most on large or hurried orders.
- Not the cheapest seat in the room: VB and SCHA both charge 0.03%.
- Launched in 2020, so its live record is short by broad-index standards. Pays distributions quarterly.
